(ET) E20 current draws



I measured the current draws of various areas of my stationary E20 for future reference with a digital clamp-on ammeter.
 
Mowing Deck only; suspended in air with original high-lift blades = 25.5 Amps.
 
Main Drive Motor, current of armature and full field, with transmission in neutral = 11.60 Amps.
Field current alone = 2.00 Amps, Armature alone = 9.60 Amps.
 
Main Drive Motor, current of armature and weakened field, with transmission in neutral = 17.00 Amps.
Field current alone = 0.60 Amps, Armature alone = 16.40 Amps.
 
Headlights = 4.00 Amps
 
Mowing Deck Lift Motor = 16.00 No Load.  Max of 28.00 Amps to suspend deck level.  44.00 Amps just before stall.
 
Test conditions...Ambient = 70F.  Battery charge = Full.
