can anyone tell me difference between running current and stall current in servo motor.
 

Every motor has a stall current, which is the current it draws when it’s stopped by an opposing force. This stall current is much greater than the running current, or current that it draws under no load. Your power supply for a motor should be able to handle the stall current with extra amperage to spare. Motors may draw near the stall current for a brief period of time when starting up, to overcome their inertia.


Good Luck
