No Volt protection is a method of motor starting that ensures personal and equipment safety by disconnecting the power from the motor in the event of a power fail.

If an isolating switch only was used, following a power cut the device could start without warning, and injury or damage could occur. No Volt protection uses push button switches and contactors wired in such a way that when the power fails, the hold on relay releases and the motor will not start until the operator presses the start button.

In most countries this is mandatory, In New Zealand or Austrailia, this is mandated by AS/NZS 3000

All motor circuits require what kind of protection?

All motor circuits require protection against single-phasing.


Why is it necessary to have a no volt protection in motor circuits?

The protection is there to prevent motors starting up on their own after a power failure. This could lead to very unsafe conditions. Also in a big industrial factory if everything started up at once the demand load could trip the main breaker. With the protection in the circuit each and every motor is started up independently.


Will 220 volt work in a high volt 3 phase motor?

Yes a 208 voltage motor will operate on 220 volts. You have to increase the motor overload protection by 10% of the motor's full load amperage to protect the motor.


What can go wrong with your fridge of 120 volt when it is pluged into 220 volt?

it may cause minor damage, such as burning out the fan motor, if unplugged quickly, or it may fry the compressor or any electronic circuits in the fridge.


How do you calculate volts with volt amperes?

Divide the circuits amperage into the volt amps and you will get the voltage.


Appliances usually run on what volt circuits?

120 volts


Can you use a 3 volt battery to run an 8 volt motor?

You can but the motor may not run, however you will not burn the motor.


How Convert 200 volt to 230 volt?

If a precision voltage is needed from 200 to 230 an auto transformer could be used. If the load is a 230 volt motor to be operated on 200 then add 15% to the nameplate full load amperage for the calculation for overload protection.


Can a put a Receiver from a lower Volt motor to a Higher Volt motor so i can control it with the transmitter i have?

NO


How do you connect motor from battery?

There are two circuits on the battery and motor. One wire is take which have four ends. The wire is connected on the desired circuits.


Can you run a 570 volt motor on 480 volt three phase power supply?

No, the voltage difference is too much. A 570 volt motor falls in the 600 volt range which is separate from the 480 volt range of three phase systems.


Can you run 220 volt motor compressor a 380 volt supply using power inverter?

No 380 volts is too wide a spread to use a 220 volt motor on.
