How many appliances are there, what kind, etc?
My house has a 125 amp main breaker, that would put the maximum that I could draw at 30000 watts (240 VAC). It will never happen though simply because I have fluorescent bulbs, gas water heater, dryer, range.
The power usage of light-bulbs is typically between about 20-100 watts, depending on the technology used, and the brightness.

"Producing" electricity is just converting energy from some other form into
electrical energy
To produce some amount of electrical power, it takes exactly the same amount
of power from some other source, plus some more to make up for the losses
in the process of converting it.
If you want to generate 100 watts of electrical power, then you have to burn
enough coal, oil, wood, or old rags to produce heat at the rate of 100 to 150
watts, then use the heat to boil water, then run the steam through the vanes
of the turbine that turns the generator.
The average American home uses about 900 kWh per month, which translates to 30 kWh per day. To power a house for 24 hours, you would need an average of around 1.25 kW (1250 watts) of power.
One Unit of electrical energy is the result of 1000 watts for one hour, or 100 watts for 10 hours. Multiply the kilowatts by the hours to get the kWh or units.
The amount of electrical energy is measured in watt-hours or kilowatt-hours, otherwise known as units, and the average European would use 5000-6000 units per year.

How many watts does it take to power a 24 voltage strobe light?
To calculate the power in watts, you would need to know the current the strobe light draws at 24 volts from its specifications. You can then use the formula P (Watts) = V (Voltage) x I (Current) to determine the power consumption. Without the current rating, it's not possible to provide an exact wattage.
How many watts are deadly?
Watts are not deadly but it would take 12 micro-watts through the heart to kill someone.
How many watts does it take to run a paper shredder?
A small shredder 100-200 watts.
How many watts of power does it take to lift 2204.622 lb?
To lift 2204.622 lb (1000 kg) with an acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2, you would need 9810 W of power.
How many amps does a 240v electric heater take?
The question is not relevant. 240 volts refers to the "potential", and amps refers to the current. Potential * current = watts, or energy. You can have 240 volts at 1 amp, which will result in 240 watts, or you can have 240 amps at 1 volt which would also result in 240 watts.
How many watts of power does it take to run the average home in Canada?
15 watts
How much watts dose concert light take?
Lights range from 300 to 1000 watts and there can be hundreds of them. Amps are rated by watts and they are useing many of these at a time. A concert probably uses more power than a very large house does in a year.
How many volts does it take to make 1 horsepower?
Volts don't make power. Watts do. Watts = (volts) x (amps) 1 horsepower = 746 watts
How many volts does it take to equal thousand watts?
It depends on the amount of amps... you have to multiply the voltage (V) with the ampere (I) to get the power (P) in watts.
How long does it take to perform 475 Joules of work with 25 watts of power?
To calculate the time it takes to perform 475 Joules of work with 25 watts of power, you use the formula: time = work / power. In this case, time = 475 Joules / 25 watts = 19 seconds. So, it will take 19 seconds to perform 475 Joules of work with 25 watts of power.
How long does it take to perform 500 Joules of work with 25 watts of power?
To find the time taken to perform 500 joules of work at a power of 25 watts, you divide the work by the power. In this case, 500 Joules / 25 watts = 20 seconds. Therefore, it would take 20 seconds to perform 500 Joules of work with 25 watts of power.
How many dc volts does it take to make 1 horsepower?
Volts don't make power. Watts do. Watts = (volts) x (amps) 1 horsepower = 746 watts (Doesn't matter if the source is AC, DC, or a combination of both.)

How many watts are in a mile?
Watts are a measure electrical power, and a mile is a measure of distance. You're trying to compare apples to oranges with this question. You could question how many watts a particular engine might take to propel a vehicle for for a mile, but that number would vary between engines.
Do small personal windmills generate enough electricity for my whole house?
Each house is different and there are many things to take into account when thinking of using windmills to power your house. You have to take into consideration how much power you use and how much wind your area gets when calculating how many windmills you will need. It can take up to 8 windmills to power the average house.
