Step 1: Find code and use table to
find kVA/HP. If code is not listed,
multiply running amperage by six to
find starting amperage.
Step 2: Find Motor HP and Volts.
Step 3: Determine starting amper-
age (see example).
Welding generator amperage out-
put must be at least twice the
Single-Phase Induction Motor Starting Requirements motor’s running amperage.

EXAMPLE: Calculate the starting amperage required for a 230 V, 1/4
HP motor with a motor start code of M.
Volts = 230 HP = 1/4 Using Table, Code M results in kVA/HP = 11.2
