4.3 Calculating Circuit Protection
The chart above shows nominal motor ratings for standard press motors, along with the power
requirements for each SAN unit. Use the formula below to calculate transformer secondary fuse or
circuit breaker sizes.
Transformer (VA)
1.5 x Secondary Voltage 3 = Secondary Fuse Size
Example:
1000 (VA)
1.5 x 200 VAC 3 = 4.33 Amps (Use 5 Amp Fuses)*
* Use a fuse or circuit breaker with the next available highest rating. Due to the high inrush current
at power up, it is recommended to use “Slow Blow” type fuses or fuses rated for motor loads such
as Bussman type FRS or FRN.
