The formula you are looking for is; Amps = HP x 746/1.73 x Volts x %eff x pf.

350 x746/1.73 x 480 x .90 x .90 = 261100/672 = 389 amps. This amperage assumes that the efficiency of the motor is at 90% and the power factor of the motor is also at 90%.

What does 277 vac mean?

That's 277 volts of alternating current. This is typically one phase of a 480v 3 phase system. Don't worry that 3 x 277 adds up to more than 480v. A 277v line is typically one phase of a 480v 3 phase system.


Can a 230 460 volt 3 phase motor be connected to a 277 480 volt 3 phase circuit?

Yes, that's possible, but only for low-powered motor. You know that in order to start, the stator must be supplied with voltages that are shows shift phase between them, so the trick is to use a capacitor (since it shifts phase current) to simulate a 3-phase source. As indicated in the following picture: http://freecircuitdiagram.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Enabling-3-Phase-Motor-Operates-with-Single-Phase-Supply.gif

How do you convert 380v 3 phase to 220v 3 phase?

Mathematically, just divide 480 by the square root of three. Electrically, 480V refers to the line-to-line value of a three phase system. For example, measure the voltage across A-phase and B-phase and you'll get 480V. 277V is the line-to-neutral value. Measure the voltage across A-phase and the neutral conductor and you should get 277V.

How is line voltage computed in a wye three phase cofiguration?

Line voltage equals phase voltage multiplied by the square root of three. a.k.a. E l = E p X 1.73 In a 3 phase 480v system the phase voltage is 277v. Therefore E l = 277 X 1.73 = 480v
