- Start date
The NEC (NFPA-70) has the full load current and starting (locked-rotor) current for typical 3-phase motors. The slip is a variable parameter based on loading of the motors and that runs around 80%-90% typically. starting torque is machine specific and should be obtained from the motor manufacture.
