The formula you are looking for is I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts. Amps = 5000/230 =21.7 amps. The wire size to run this heater would be a #10 copper conductor. The supply breaker would be a two pole 30 amp breaker.
To calculate the amperage draw, you can use the formula P = V x I, where P is the power in watts, V is the voltage in volts, and I is the current in amps. Given that the power is 1200 watts and voltage is 120 volts, you can rearrange the formula to solve for current. Therefore, I = P / V, so the amperage draw of the heater would be 10 amps.
Watts = Amps x Volts for a resistive load like a water heater.
The formula you are looking for is I = W/E.
Assuming it is a 208-volt line voltage (as normal in 3-phase) the phase voltage is that divided by sqrt(3), or 120 volts. Each phase has to supply 10 kW so the current on each phase is 83.3 amps.
No, a 1000-watt electric heater operating at 110V will produce the same amount of heat as a 1000-watt heater operating at 220V. The power output (in watts) determines the amount of heat produced, not the voltage.

Current (amps)=Watts/Volts =2000/120 =16.75 =16.75 amps

For a 5kW heater HVAC system, you would typically need to use 10-gauge wire to handle the current load safely. It's important to always consult the manufacturer's specifications or a licensed electrician to ensure you are using the correct wire gauge for your specific setup.
To answer this question the wattage of the block heater must be stated. Amps = Watts/Volts.
1.25 A
Using the formula Power = Voltage x Current, we can calculate the current: Current = Power / Voltage. Plugging in the values, we get 1500W / 120V = 12.5A. So, a 1500W resistance heater would draw 12.5A of current at 120V.
100 KW divided by 415 volts is 241 amperes. Power = voltage times current, so current = power divided by voltage.
The amperage of an electric heater depends on its power rating in watts and the voltage it operates on. To determine the amperage, divide the wattage by the voltage (Amperes = Watts / Volts). For example, a 1500 watt electric heater running on 120 volts would use 12.5 amperes (1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 A).
