ENGINEERING DATA — ELECTRICAL DATA Y COMPUTING HORSEPOWER FROM REVOLVING WATT HOUR METERS (A SIMPLE method of accurately measuring pover consumption i of genera interest tothe ‘owner or operator of any electrically driven pump. A periodical record of the power cor ‘sumption, capacity of the pump, and the the pumping level assists in maintain- YY ing operation a maximum efcency and gies an indcation af the proper ine for reondtion- ing or modernizing the installation. ‘The power consumption is measured by the Watt-Hour Meter, usually located on the switch- @ board in the pump house adjacent to the motor. Large units require current and/or potential transformers, so tat the watt-hour meter reading must be multiplied by the ratio ofthese tran formers to obtain the correct measurement of power consumption of the mi ‘A motor which draws 200 amp. at 440 volts may be metered through current transformers rated 200 amp. primary and 5 amp. secondary, so that but 5 amp. would pass through the vatt-hour meter. No potential transformers being used, the watt-hour meter reading, multiplied by the ratio of 200 to'5, would give the amount of power in the main circuit. ‘Assuming that a motor draws 60 amp. at 2300 volts, potential as vell as current transformers are required. IF the ratio is 60 to 5 amp. on the current, and 2300 to 115 on a formers, the vatt-hour meter reading multiplied by the ratio of 60 fo ratio of 2300 to 115, will give a true measure of the power consumy t ratio is usually stamped on a brass nameplate attached tothe transformer. corn att-hour meters now in use for Uo Disk constants and multipliers for practically all modern single and three phase, 110-220-440 volts are shown in the chart USE OF CHART First determine the make, type, volts and amp. of the meter. If no current or potential trans- formers are used, refer to the chart and determine M value for the meter. The M x r.p.m. of disk — hp, input to motor. For a meter, G.E., type D3, 220 volt, 15 amp., K M= 3217, number of revolutic ik in one miaute — 20. Then .3217 x 20 input to motor. ‘As another example consider an installation where current transformers having 3 to | are used. M house type OA, 220 volt, 5 amp., K— 1.1/3, M—-1072, number of revolutions of disk in one minute = 21. Then .1072x 21 x 20 — 45.02 hp. input to motor. Disk constants K are included in the accompanying chart because occasionally the manu- facturer’s nameplate has been removed, in which event the constant K is marked on the meter. To determine the M value in such cases, find a K in the table corresponding to that on the ructer in question. The M applying will be the one adjacent to an~ on the right of this K. Definitions: K—A constant which represents the number of watt-hours passed through the meter ‘while the disk makes one revolution. M—A factor which, when multiplied by the number of revolutions of the disk in one minute, gives hp. input to motor. in terms of hp. input YW ‘The hp. values expressed above relate to input to motor. The rating of motor hp. output. Therefore, the hp. output or brake hp. is determined by multipl by the motor efficiency, which can be obtained from the motor manufacture HU
