What is your answer? ..and explain why you believe it to be correct.

If we just furnish the answer, what is the point of being tested.

Full Load Amps

Full Load Amps

I m thinking motor starting. It it easier to keep something running after it is started. But all the tables in sec. 430.247-430.250 give full load amps. for motors running at base or normal speeds. So I am still kind of guessing.

Thanks for seperating your answers. It helps the eyes.:grin:

Full Load Amps - The amount of current, in amps, in an electrical circuit when the load is operating in a full-capacity condition.
