Reference Charts for Determining Runway Specifications
The following table is figured for 220V and 440V, 3 phase, 60 cycle AC motors with a 5% loss and is based on the
formula:
Volts Lost = 1.73 x ampere load x resistance factor x length of conductor in feet from the powerfeed |

NOTES:
- Center feed doubles runway length.
- Less than full amp. load increases maximum distance for powerfeed.
eg 40 amps in CA90 bar at 440V: 90A/40A x 102 ft. = 230 ft.
- Higher voltage than shown increases maximum distance from powerfeed
eg. 80 amps in CA90 bar at 480V: 480V/440V x 102 ft. = 111 ft.
- High voltage loss allowance by motor manufacturer increases maximum distance from powerfeed
eg. if 10% loss is allowable then maximum distance from powerfeed is twice the distance indicated in the
table above, which is based on a 5% allowable loss
