It is based on the RPM of the motor. Use the following formulas for 50 and 60 Hertz. The mathematical formula is Frequency in Hertz times 60 (for seconds in a minute) times two (for the positive and negative pulses in the cycle) divided by the number of poles. For 60 hertz, the formula would be, 60 x 60 x 2 = 7,200 no load RPM divided by the number of poles will give you the nameplate RPM of the motor. eg from above formula 7200/2 pole = 3600 RPM, 7200/4 = 1800 RPM, 7200/6 = 1200 RPM
Your question is a little like asking, 'How long is a piece of string?'! Do the two motors have the same power rating, or are they different?The rate at which energy is used by any machine is defined by its power rating. If the power ratings of two different machines are the same, then both machines use energy at the same rate. So if a single-phase motor has the same power rating as a three-phase motor, then they will both use exactly the same amount of energy over a given period of time.So, if a single-phase motor has a greater power rating than a three-phase motor, then the single-phase motor will the greater amount of energy in a given period. On the other hand, if a three-phase motor has a greater power rating than a single-phase motor, then the three-phase motor will the greater amount of energy in a given period.
In Canada the phase sequence colours are A = red, B = black and C = blue. As for CCW rotation on a three phase electrical power system I presume that you are talking about motor connections. There are meters that can be connected to the motor not connected to the system. You just spin the rotor in the direction that you want the motor to run when connected and the meter will tell you what the connection will be to the power system to obtain that direction. Be it ABC or CBA.
I usually look at the data plate on the side of the motor, or inside the terminal junction cover. If neither are there, a motor rewinding shop could open it up and tell. Different manufacturers are known to use their own color codes. Esp. if it's a foreign make.
Read the specification plate on the motor to determine the amount of current that the motor uses, as well as the voltage and phase. Most likely, it will be a 3 phase motor, so you can't simply connect it to your house wiring, but without sufficient information, it is impossible to tell you all of the specifics. <<>> The code book rates the amperage of a three phase 40 HP motor by different voltages. at 200 volts - 120 amps, 230 volts - 104 amps, 460 volts - 52 amps and 575 volts - 52 amps. A breaker for a motor has to be sized to 250% of the motors full load amps. Also the wire size for a motor has to be 125% of the motor full load amps.
Reversing polarity is not possible with an ac motor. Some do have wiring that will allow you to change rotation. The type and model of the motor can tell you if it is reversible.
To see if the motor is three phase or single phase look at the motor's nameplate. There it will tell you what the voltage needs to be and what system phase the motor needs to be connected to operate properly.
Single phase motor winding is often checked just by listening to the noise that the motor is making. An experienced person can tell if the motor is working at single phase or double phase.
it can tell you which way a motor will turn before you apply power sometimes nice to know
It is possible to run a DC motor on a 3-phase supply using a full-wave rectifier if the voltage is right.
6,25AnswerWithout knowing the efficiency of the motor, it's impossible to tell. The horsepower rating of a motor describes its output power; you need to know its input power in order to calculate its current.
Look on the inside of the motor's junction box. This is where the wiring diagram is located and it will tell you what connections to make.

The totem poles were made to tell stories of the past
Totem poles do not honor gods. They tell stories.
The opposite poles attract and similar poles repel.
The best thing to do is to tell them it is not a phase and that they should support you. If they insist it is, which they will, tell them that even if it is a phase, I want you to support me and my decisions, now, here. Tell them not to wait until they are persuaded that your Bi to support you, they should support you now.
