A typical 5 ton AC with an EER of 12 will use about 5KWHr per hour of use. At 240VAC, that would be an average draw of a bit more than 20 Amps. The peak draw would be somewhat higher than that and would vary quite a bit with age, condition, and quality of the equipment. It is most likely equipped with 40 A, 50 A or even 60A breakers.
That equipment will cost between 50 cents and $1.50 per hour of usage depending on electric costs where you live.
A 5-ton air conditioner typically draws around 30-50 amps of current when running. The exact amount can vary depending on the specific model and efficiency rating of the unit. It's important to consult the manufacturer's specifications or an electrician for precise information.

What is locked rotor current for 3 ton AC?
LRC for 3 ton AC is approximately 5 double the running current (75 A )
How many amps does a 2 ton 14 SEER Trane AC draw at startup and running?
The answer you are looking for is on the condensing unit tag. It`s listed as FLA or (full load amps) or RLA (running load amps). Start up amps are appx 5 to 6 times this # but this current is only drawn very briefly. Be sure to add both the compressor and fan motor amperage to get total current draw of the unit. The control power is supplied by the indoor unit so that is not a factor.
Is AC current what house electricity uses?
Throughout the world the system used for home electrification is alternating current (AC).
Is a AC adapter the same as a charger?
An ac adapter converts ac current into dc current through a rectifier, and a battery charger outputs dc current at an adjustable powerful charging rate and also converts ac current to dc current to charge different sizes of batteries.
Is home elect ac currant?
DC current is not used in home wiring. It may be used to power a door bell, alarm system, under counter lights, etc, that uses a transformer powered by AC that converts the power to DC. Other than that homes are wired for AC current only.
What is locked rotor current for 3 ton AC?
LRC for 3 ton AC is approximately 5 double the running current (75 A )

What is the difference when selecting a cable between AC and DC current?
AC. is alternating current and Dc is direct current. alternating equivalant to pulsating electricity while direct is a constant draw with little fluxuation.

A clothes dryer uses 5500 w of power when connected to a 220-v ac line how much current does the dryer draw from the line?
5500Watts/220V=25 Amps
What is the relation of ac and DC?
DC is direct current, a steady current supplied from a steady voltage. AC is alternating current changing like a sine-wave positive and negative, with the advantage that it can be changed by transformers. DC can be derived from AC by rectification and smoothing circuits, which are built into equipments which draw their power (AC) from public electricity suppliers.
