KB Electronics - How to choose the right horsepower resistor (HP) and armature fuse?
Picking the proper horsepower resistor and armature fuse all depends on your application. Most motors come with specs of information on the nameplate. It should show what horsepower it can run, however, if your motor is old or heavily used, sometimes the plate can't be read. You might need to use a multimeter. To determine which to select, the things to look at are: armature voltage (VDC), amperage (AMP or sometimes A), and the horsepower (HP). Below, you can see both horsepower and fuse chart to determine which you need for your motor: When picking the resistor, you use the voltage...
