The key design factor in a VAV system is the control of. the supplied air. The terminal unit should be sized to. take advantage of as much of its potential capacity as. possible. Without this fundamental consideration, the. customer has not received the best value for their VAV. system design.
The amperage rating on the DC motor is not the amperage the treadmill will be using from your wall outlet. Most treadmills only need 10-12 amps from the wall (or less), so a 15 amp circuit is fine, regardless of the rating on the motor. Just look at the amperage rating on the treadmill to see what your wall outlet needs to supply. #2 see #1. #3 Current is always lost in the form of heat when used to power a device. Be it in the motor, the electronics or even the line supplying the current.
The bigger the voltage and the bigger the current, the more electrical power you have. We measure electric power in units called watts. Something that uses 1 watt uses 1 joule of energy each second. The electric power in a circuit is equal to the voltage Ã the current (in other words: watts = volts Ã amps). So if you have a 100-watt (100 W) light and you know your electricity supply is rated as 120 volts (typical household voltage in the United States), the current flowing must be 100/120 = 0.8 amps.
