Full Load Current Calculator

The document describes a full load current calculator that calculates the current for 1-phase AC, 3-phase AC, and DC loads based on voltage, load size in kW/kVA/hp, and power factor. It provides the equations used to calculate full load current for each load type, noting that current is calculated based on supply voltage, load size, and power factor cosφ when load is in kW or hp. For a 3-phase, 15kW load at 415V and 0.85 power factor, the calculator determines the full load current is 24.55A.

Parameters:
Parameters

The full load current calculator calculates the full load current from the following parameters:

Voltage (V): Specify
(V): phase-to-phase (V LL ) voltage for a 3-phase AC supply in volts. Specify the the phase-to-neutral (V LN )
voltage for a 1-phase AC or DC supply. Select the phase arrangement: 1 Phase AC,  3 phase AC, or DC.
Load (S): Specify
(S): the the load in kW, kVA, A, or hp. Specify cos
cosΦ (load power factor) when load is specified in kW or hp.
