How many amps needed for a 9000 btu unit at 240 volts?
9000 BTU/hour is equivalent to 2300 watts so the heater will draw 10 amps on 230 volts.
How many amps will a 400 watt heater cartrige draw at 240 volts?
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, a 400-watt heater cartridge at 240 volts would draw 1.67 amps.
A 50 gallon electric water heater that uses 2 elements is normally what voltage?
A 50 gallon electric water heater with 2 elements is typically connected to a 240 volt power supply. Each element is designed to run on 240 volts to efficiently heat the water in the tank.
Can you use 240v appliances on 110v current?
No, the pin configuration of the 240 volt receptacle is different from a 120 volt pin configuration. This is a safety factor to prevent the wrong voltage being applied to the wrong device. If the appliance is an electrical heater, then operating a 240 volt unit on 120 volts would give you a reduced wattage factor. By halving the rated operating voltage you will only receive one quarter of the rated wattage from the unit. A 3000 watt heater at 240 volts will be reduced to 750 watts on 120 volts.
How many amps does a 2000 watt heater draw at 240 volts?
Amps * Volts = Watts So, Watts / Volts = Amps 2000 / 240 = 8.333 Amps You should run the circuit on a two pole 15 Amp breaker, using 14 AWG, 2 conductor (plus ground) wire, just so you have a little safety factor in the circuit size.
If an electric unit pulls 33 amps with a supplied voltage of 240 volts what would the kilowatt output be?
Watts = Amps x Volts. 33 x 240/1000 = 7.9 Kw
A hot-water heater has an 8-ohm element that operates at 240 V The power that's consumed by this water heater is?
VOLTS x (VOLTS/OHMS) = WATTS 240 X (240/8) = 7200 Watts = 7.2KWatts
How many amps needed for a 9000 btu unit at 240 volts?
9000 BTU/hour is equivalent to 2300 watts so the heater will draw 10 amps on 230 volts.
What is the power voltage electrical strip heaters supplied with?
Usually with 240 volts. Some under 1000 watts will use 120 volts.
How many amps will a 400 watt heater cartrige draw at 240 volts?
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, a 400-watt heater cartridge at 240 volts would draw 1.67 amps.
If an electric heater has a red blue and green wire that has been cut off how do i know if its 120 volts or 240 volts?
A label.
How many volts are supplied to the average household?
In the USA it is either 120/208 or 120/240 depending on your local unility company
How many amps does a 2000 watt heater draw at 240 volts on each line?
For a single phase circuit, the equation you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
Can i run a 240 volt water heater on 120 volt?
No. A water heater requires a 240 volt connection and cannot be re-wired to run on 120 volts. There isn't enough amperage in 120 volts to power the heating rods that are inside.
A 50 gallon electric water heater that uses 2 elements is normally what voltage?
A 50 gallon electric water heater with 2 elements is typically connected to a 240 volt power supply. Each element is designed to run on 240 volts to efficiently heat the water in the tank.
What is the recommended voltage for a 4500 watt water heater element?
The recommended voltage for a 4500 watt water heater element is typically 240 volts.
Why do you need more than one type of voltage line in a house?
In the USA houses would have 120/240 volts. 120 volts at most receptacles and lights and 240 volts for larger equipment like your stove, dryer, hot water heater.
