Bob,

Just to paly devil's advocate here... *Everyone is busting on you for saying
you have a 5 HP, single phase motor that draws 20 amps on your compressor..

AOS motor
Model K307
1800 RPM
Single phase
F213TC frame
1.15 service factor
23.0 FLA at 220 single ph.
No 120 option provided in the book.

Joe,
That example is drawing 23 amps at 220 volts.
NO Way you could get 5 HSP from half the voltage.
That is what they are pointing out. The amps times voltage does not
yield 5 HSP.
