Ron, what peak starting current should I expect on a single-phase,
240V, 3/4h.p., running current=7.8A motor used to lift my hangar door?
I want to rig up a genny to lift the door during a power failure. The
gear train on the door is rigged so that all of the cables are slack
(i.e. only motor inertial) when the motor starts.
