Texas Journeyman exam practice question · Motors & Generators

What rating must a motor controller have for the motor it controls?

  • A horsepower rating suitable for the connected motor
  • BA voltage rating below the circuit
  • COnly a matching enclosure color
  • DOnly the same conductor temperature for the motor circuit described in the question

Why A is correct

A controller must be suitable for the motor horsepower, voltage, current, duty, and application. General ampere rating alone may not establish motor switching suitability.
