The amount of copper in a particular motor is not determined by horsepower only, there is no relationship between the total weight of MAGNET WIRE to the HORSEPOWER of an electric motor.

Determining factors are the vintage, frame, make, speed, and frame designation.

What percentage of copper in Electric generator?

Electric generators typically contain copper windings to conduct electricity. The percentage of copper in an electric generator can vary, but it can range from 20% to 30% of the total weight of the generator. Copper is favored for its high electrical conductivity and resistance to heat.

Can you convert a 3 phase air compressor to 240 volts?

only way to convert from 3 phase to 240 would be to change the electric motor on the compressor


What size electric motor do you need to run an air compressor I have a furnace blower motor. Would that be suitable or do I need a heavier duty one?

It would all depend on the size of the compressor. If it's a small one(like for an airbrush gun) it might just work, but if it's a compressor to power impact wrenches or similar it'd probably not work.


air compressor?

An air compressor is a pneumatic device that converts power (using an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in pressurized air (i.e., compressed air). 


What is some conclusions for how to make a simple electric motor?

To make a simple electric motor, you will need a battery, copper wire, a magnet, and a base to hold the motor. By winding the copper wire around the base and connecting it to the battery, you create an electromagnet. When the base is placed between the poles of the magnet, the electromagnet will interact with the magnetic field to spin the motor. This simple motor demonstrates how electrical energy can be converted into mechanical motion.


What are motor made from?

an electric motor is a copper winding or 3 separate windings depending on the phase, the copper winding is the centralised inside of a iron magnet, this is also how a generator is made instead of putting a current on you turn the windings to receive a voltage .


Name two different types of compressor drives?

Electric motor drive and gas turbine drive are two different types of compressor drives commonly used in industrial applications. Electric motor drives are more common for smaller scale operations, while gas turbine drives are typically used in large-scale applications due to their higher power output.
