5.8 FLA, 34.8 LRA
Related to the previous post.
A friend takes care of a commerical steam boiler which has a low-water cutoff, whose output switch is rated 5.8 FLA, 34.8 LRA . What is the difference between FL amps and LR amps? The Flash vs the Lone Ranger? |

FLA, full load amps, is the current draw under full load.
LRA, locked rotor amps, is the current draw if the center rotor is locked and cannot move. Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. "micky" wrote in message ...

LRA isn't starting current.

If the motor turns when power is applied, the peak current is the LRA, but it only lasts for a fraction of a second and then drops as soon as the motor armature starts rotating. |
