LazyPup - I enjoy reading your electrical explanations, and have gained a greater understanding of electrical theory as a result. I am a little confused, however, by your explanation that a 3/4 hp (my figures) motor would create substantially more heat than a 1/2 hp motor driving the same load (fan). If heat is a byproduct of work, wouldn't both motors be doing the same amount of work and thus produce about the same amount of heat? Again, thanks for the continuing education. Good luck. - Dave
