Abhay Sisodia

1 Tonn of refrigeration consumes 1400 watt approx. For

coverting watt to ampere we have to divide 1400 to 230volt
it comes approx 6amperes for safety meausres we select 3
times bigger MCB that means 18ampere.

Answer (/Viewpost/489311/All-Answers-Actually-Wrong-Mcbs-Handle-Quite-Larger-Current-2-15-Times-Depending.Html) / Tony

All the answers are actually wrong. MCBs can handle quite a larger current (2-15 times, depending on type) for short period of
time so you don't consider inrush current.

Type B: 3-5 times

Type C: 5-10 times
Type D: 10-20 times

The breaker in the distribution box usually is dependent wire gauges. You can adjust the mcb with socket according to load.

Use type C for ac. Only use 1.5 times of the running current. I use 13A for 1.5 ton ac.

Answer (/Viewpost/439150/Friend-If-Assume-Normal-Current-7-Amps-Due-Split-Ac-Considered-Inductive-Load-St.Html) /
Ahmed Alyassi

My friend if we assume the normal.current is 7 amps

Then due to that split ac is considered it is inductive load
The starting current would be x5 or x4 more
So . 7 times 4 =28 amps

But even if your breaker is 25 lets assume

It might not trip. Immediatly cause the delay and the amps didnt increase alot
I would recommend 32 A for 1ton or 1.5ton

well i ve 1 ton LG Window AC, i ve checked its running amperage is 6.23A, So my answer is 6-7A in running , i ve connected a
breaker of 10A which does not trip on starting or running... i dont know the starting current...but i think may be 9A?

Answer (/Viewpost/467940/Check-Specification-Sheet-Air-Conditioner-Wattage-Consumed-Running-Current-Amper.Html) / Tech

Mech

Check the Specification sheet of the Air-conditioner for wattage consumed or running current in Amperes. Starting current for
compressor motors can be safely assumed as 3.5 times the running current. MCB (breaker) rating should be 1.5 times the max
current required that is the starting current. So, Breaker rating should be 5-6 times Aircon running current. This is unique to
appliances with motors like Refrigerators, Air conditioners, Washing machines, water pumps etc.,
