What amps should a 5 ton rheem air conditioner pull when it starts?
Rgmurray62
Read the tag on the condenser, it will be noted as LRA. Be sure to check the LRA for the fan as well and add them together for the total. If it is not listed on the tag it will certainly be listed seperately on both the compressor and the fan motor. LRA = Locked Rotor Amps.
