• If the current unbalance is more than 2%,

current readings should be checked on each
leg using each of the three possible hook-ups.
Roll the motor leads across the starter in the
same direction to prevent motor reversal.

To calculate percent of current unbalance (see,
Example below):

1. Add the three-line amp values together.

2. Divide the sum by three, yielding average

current

3. Pick the amp value, which is furthest from

the average current (either high or low).

4. Determine the difference between this amp

value (furthest from average) and the aver-
age.

5. Divide the difference by the average. Multi-

ply the result by 100 to determine percent of
unbalance.

Current unbalance should not exceed 5% at ser-
vice factor load or 10% at rated input load. If the
unbalance cannot be corrected by rolling leads, the

source of the unbalance must be located and cor-
rected. If, on the three possible hookups, the leg
farthest from the average stays on the same power
lead, most of the unbalance is coming from the
power source.

Contact your local power company to resolve
imbalance.

÷ 3 = 50 amps

÷ 3 = 50 amps

– 46 = 4 amps

– 48 = 2 amps

– 49 = 1 amps

4 ÷ 50 = .08 or 8%

2 ÷ 50 = .04 or 4%

1 ÷ 50 = .02 or 2%
