Ok nevermind, I found it: “Locked rotor amps (LRA) LRA is a measure of the current draw when a motor is energized with full voltage but is not rotating. LRA is usually five to seven times the FLA of a motor. “
The source calling it “load running amps” was just wrong. Stupid internet being wrong.

Is this like continuous vs peak? What does “Defiinte Purpose” mean? These are probably perfect Jamie Solorza questions if he was still around…..

So….there’s a standard 11-pin blade socket? Is it from a standards body like IEC or they just sort of landed on one design? -Adam From: dmmoff...@gmail.com <mailto:dmmoff...@gmail.com> <dmmoff...@gmail.com <mailto:dmmoff...@gmail.com> > Sent: Wednesday, August 07, 2024 3:25 PM To: 'AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group' <af@af.afmug.com <mailto:af@af.afmug.com> > Subject: Power relay sockets and mount types I’m not as familiar with these things as I would like. I’m looking at this data sheet for a power relay at Mouser: https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/418/9/ENG_DS_1308242_KUHP_0914_KUHP_0914-3344401.pdf In the bottom right corner on the first page it says “no sockets are available for this relay”. TE’s web site refers to it as a “Panel” mount type and “Plug-in” connection type. So it sure looks and sounds like it should plug into some kind of socket. After a lot of screwing around I think I’ve determined that the pins and dimensions look incredibly similar to SquareD/Schneider K-Type sockets. Is this a situation where TE is making a product compatible with the SquareD/Schneider socket, but can’t refer to the that socket because it’s someone else’s intellectual property? And am I supposed to just know by looking that it’s a “K Type” socket? I think I’ve figured this out, I guess I’m looking for confirmation or correction.
