What amperage breaker does one need for a 5HP table saw on a 240V
single phase circuit?
My logic: Typically, single phase 5HP 240V (or 230V) motors are rated
at 19.8 or 20 A.
I have a true 5 HP motor that is rated at 25 amps @ 230 volt. I did a quick
check through a Grainger catalog and found only one 5 HP motor under 20 amps
@ 230 volt. Most were 22-23 amps.
