How do you figure out how many henry's a motor has? I will be using this equation to figure out the inductive reactance that a motor has.

    Depends

    on if it's 1 phz or 3 phz/ alternating or direct current.. Any Electrical supply house has a book called "Ugly's Electrical References" Great for what you are doing. Cost about 20 or 30.00.Example of 3 phz equation...HP = Volts X Amps X power factor X 1.73 (Divided by) 746

    Actually,...

    The book is amazing. It is PACKED with useful information, conversion charts and all laws of electrical relevance. I am merely a reader ;-)
