This document provides information for calculating motor torque, current, fuse and circuit breaker size, thermal overload relay settings, and contactor size and type for a 5HP, 750 RPM, 3-phase motor rated at 5 kW. It states that the motor's full load torque is 47 Nm, starting torque is 142 Nm, full load current is 6A, and starting current is 45A. It then provides charts for properly sizing fuses, circuit breakers, thermal overload relays, and contactors according to motor specifications and National Electric Code standards.

Basic Calculation of Motor Torque and
Current Motor Rated Torque (Full Load Torque) = 5252xHPxRPM Motor Rated Torque (Full Load Torque) = 5252x5x750 = 35 lb-ft. Motor Rated Torque (Full Load Torque) = 9500xKWxRPM Motor Rated Torque (Full Load Torque) = 9500x(5×0.746)x750 = 47 Nm If Motor Capacity is less than 30 KW than Motor Starting Torque is 3xMotor Full Load Current or 2X Motor Full Load Current. Motor Starting Torque = 3xMotor Full Load Current. Motor Starting Torque = 3×47 = 142Nm. Motor Lock Rotor Current = 1000xHPx figure from below Chart/1.732×415 Locked Rotor Current Code Min. Max.

Motor Full Load Current (Line) = KWx1000/1.732×415 Motor Full Load Current (Line) = (5×0.746)x1000/1.732×415 = 6 Amp. Motor Full Load Current (Phase) = Motor Full Load Current (Line)/1.732 Motor Full Load Current (Phase) = 6/1.732 =4Amp Motor Starting Current = 6 to 7xFull Load Current. Motor Starting Current (Line) = 7×6 = 45 Amp
