Motor list Excel template.
A motor list is the electrical engineering register of every motor on a project. One row per motor tag carries the driven equipment, rated horsepower or kilowatts, voltage, phase, frequency, RPM, starter class, NEMA size 0-7 or IEC class 1-4, MCC bucket assignment, NEMA frame, enclosure rating, TEFC, ODP, TEXP, XP, WPI, WPII, hazardous area rating, NEC Class, Division, Group or IEC zone, and the feeder cable reference.
What the template carries.
Electrical motor list template with 13 columns covering motor tag, driven equipment, HP, kW, voltage, phase, frequency, RPM, starter class, MCC bucket, NEMA frame, enclosure, hazardous area rating, and feeder cable reference. Pre-formatted with frozen header, auto-filter, and 48 blank rows.

Every column, defined.
13 columns mapped to how a electrical motor list is issued on a real project. Dropdown columns enforce values; free-text columns let house notation preserve as drawn.
| # | Column | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Motor Tag | Text | Motor identifier, M-101, MTR-201. |
| 02 | Driven Equipment | Text | Pump, fan, or compressor the motor drives |
| 03 | Service | Text | Process service |
| 04 | HP, kW | Text | Rated motor power |
| 05 | Voltage | Text | Rated voltage |
| 06 | Phase, Frequency | Text | 3φ 60Hz, 3φ 50Hz, 1φ 60Hz, etc. |
| 07 | RPM | Text | Synchronous or rated RPM |
| 08 | Starter Class | Text | NEMA size 0-7 or IEC class 1-4 |
| 09 | MCC Bucket | Text | MCC bucket position |
| 10 | NEMA Frame | Text | NEMA frame designation |
| 11 | Enclosure | List | TEFC, ODP, TEXP, XP, WPI, WPII |
| 12 | Hazardous Area Rating | Text | Class, Division, Group, or IEC Zone |
| 13 | Feeder Cable | Text | Feeder cable tag reference |
What ships in the file.
Worked example
One filled row shows the format for every column so the schema is clear before the engineer starts typing.
Auto-filter
Enabled on every column. Pivot by any field without a single formula.
48 blank rows
Pre-formatted and ready to paste into. Extends without breaking the dropdown or filter range.
Enforced dropdowns
Categorical columns (priority, signal class, status, type) enforce values so the register stays clean.
Cross-tool
Plain .xlsx. Opens cleanly in Excel, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice. No macros, no add-ins.
No tracking
No macros, no add-ins, no telemetry inside the file. Edit and ship.
Quiet signoff
A single mint-italic line at the bottom: Drag a source document at tagsight.io to fill this automatically. Easy to delete.
Extract from a source document instead.
Upload the source document instead and the same 13-column schema this template defines comes back populated. Type, tag, vendor, model, and per-row metadata come from the document itself.
Scanned binders, CAD-exported PDFs, and image scans all work. House conventions, vendor-specific forms, and dialect-specific tag schemes read as drawn.
Common questions
What is a motor list.
The motor list is the electrical register of every motor on the project. One row per motor tag with driven equipment, HP, voltage, phase, frequency, RPM, starter class, MCC bucket, NEMA frame, enclosure, hazardous area rating, and feeder cable reference. It is the document handed to the MCC builder for bid and to commissioning for verification.
What columns are in this template.
Thirteen columns. The Enclosure column is a dropdown, TEFC, ODP, TEXP, XP, WPI, WPII. Everything else stays free text so NEMA and IEC starter notations preserve as drawn.
Does this work for VFD-driven motors.
Yes. The Starter Class column accepts VFD, soft-start, reduced-voltage, or full-voltage notation. Drive-specific metadata, drive model, drive rating, drive bypass arrangement goes in the Notes column or a custom column added after Feeder Cable.
