HP to Amps Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the current in amps (A) from horsepower (HP) is:

$A = \frac{HP \times 746}{V \times n \times PF}$

Where:

HP to amps is the conversion from the standard unit of mechanical power to electrical power in amps.

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the current in amps (A):

$A = \frac{5 \times 746}{230 \times 0.9 \times 0.8} \approx 22.52 \text{ A}$

The current is approximately 22.52 amps.
