4.3) AMPERAGE CALCULATIONS
The INPUT VOLTAGE, PHASE, TOTAL POWER RATING, and HEATER
VOLTAGE RATING are used to calculate the amperage.
NOTE: 380-425V heaters are not usually rated for 380-425V. They are usually 208-240V heaters
that have been re-stamped 380-425V and wired in series.
FORMULAS TO CALCULATE AMPERAGE
THREE PHASE SINGLE PHASE
208-240V & 440-600V
380-425V
(using 208-240V heaters)
208-240V &
440-600V
380-425V
(using 208-240V)
Not possible with
odd number of
heaters
DEFINITIONS:
I = Amperage VI = Input Voltage
