* These values for full load current running at speeds usual for belted motors and motors with normal torque characteristics. Motors built for especially low speeds or high torques may require more running current, in which case the nameplate current rating should be used.

** For full load currents of 208 and 200 volt motors, increase the corresponding 230 volt motor full load current by 10 and 15 per cent respectively.
