Is there any easy way of telling the rating of an electric motor?
The one on my Myford super7 lathe appears to be a newer replacement for the original and has no data plate or manufacturer markings on it whatsoever. The original motor would’ve been 3/4hp so an educated guess would be that the newer motor is a straight replacement but would like to sure before I purchase a new DOL starter switch for it.
Thanks
