Motor Horsepower (HP) Rounding Appears Incorrect

Symptom:

• The selector tool assigns a different HP rating than expected.
• Example: A motor should be 15HP, but the system selects a 12.5HP motor instead.

Cause:

This is not a bug. The selector tool is working as designed:

• New motors have been added, including a 12.5HP NEMA Motor.
• The tool applies a 5% safety margin for Arrangement 4:
  • Example: 10.8HP × 1.05 = 11.34HP, so the system selects a 12.5HP (9.2kW equivalent) motor.

Solution:

• If the selected motor meets the required power and safety margins, no action is needed.
• If a 15HP motor is specifically required, manually select it in Motor Sizing Options.
