GENERAL ENGINEERING DATA
Motors have two current ratings locked rotor (LRA) and full
load (FLA). Locked rotor current is drawn at the instant power
is applied and before the motor starts rotating. It is also drawn
if the motor is stalled. Full load current is drawn when the motor
is running at its full load rating.
Tables 24, 25, and 26 are provided as a convenience to the
reader for reference only. In all cases the National Electrical
code and local codes take precedence.
