Temperature Rise Standards
When operated at rated voltage and frequency, the temperature rise of the motor windings, above the
ambient temperature should not exceed the values in the following table. Note that separate values
are given for motors with a 1.0 service factor and 1.15 service factor. The values given in the table for
1.0 service factor are for motors operated at rated load or nameplate horsepower. The values given
for 1.15 service factor are for motors operated at service factor load.

Temperature rise values are by resistance method of determination when operated on a 60Hz
utility sine wave.
Temperature rise values are based on a reference ambient temperature of 40°C.
