What is the unit consumption of 3 hp motor in 24 hours?

Unit consumed = Power in kW X numbers of hours of operation. = 59.76 units. Hence units burnt (consumed) by 3 HP motor in 24 hours will be 59.76, if the motor efficiency is 90\% and motor is fully loaded. In actual, motor load will be less than full load and units consumed will be less accordingly.

What is the power consumption of a 15 hp motor?

15 HP means it will be around 12 kW, (as per the name plate details mentioned by the motor manufacturers ), so 12 kilo watts, running for 1 hour means it will be 12 kwh, as 1 kwh is equal to one unit, so total energy consumption is 12 units for 1 hour period for the 15 HP MOTOR, assuming that it was drawing full load current.

What is the output power of a 3HP motor?

It depends upon load on the motor. If the motor is fully loaded, it will provide output power of 3HP = (3 X 0.746) kW = 2.24 kW. Electrical input power = output power / (Efficiency /100). Unit consumed = Power in kW X numbers of hours of operation.

How to calculate the units of electricity consumed by a motor?

Assuming 90\% efficiency, Input Power = 0.746/0.9 = 0.83kW. So, the consumed units of electricity = Power in kW X numbers of hours of operation = 0.83 units (assuming the motor is running for an hour). Now, I want to calculate the units of electricity consumption on the basis of load.
