15 amps x 110 volts = 1650 watts
20 amps x 110 volts = 2200 watts
30 amps x 110 volts = 3300 watts
15 amps x 120 volts = 1800 watts
20 amps x 120 volts = 2400 watts
30 amps x 120 volts = 3600 watts
You can only run a single 1500 watt heater on either 15 or 20 amp line regardless of if it is 120 or 110 volts.
you may run two 1500 watt heaters on a 30 amp 110 or 120 volt line though
Just use another circuit (not just another outlet as many outlets are common to a single circuit) one circuit for each 1500 watt heater.
warning, do NOT use anything that uses the same amount of watts that your circuit can handle, for example, if you have a 120 volt outlet on a 15 amp circuit the max for that outlet is 1800, thus you need to stay WELL UNDER that amount. If you use exactly 1800 watts and the breaker doesn't trip then the resistance of the wires and connections can heat up causing a fire. The further from the breaker box = more resistance
volts times amps = watts
watts divided by volts = amps
watts divided by amps = volts
its a simple math equation. You can check your breaker box for the amps for each circuit, most recent homes are 120 volts (note that double breakers are double the current, if your household voltage is 120 then double breakers are 240 volts)
a rule of thumb... appliances require a set amount of volts, you must make sure you plug it into the right voltage, the appliance itself will take care of how many amps it draws, thus how many watts it uses. Most appliances will list the voltage required and the amps that it draws somewhere near the power cord.
110 volt heater on 220 volts
The load is a resistive load and as such it is governed by Ohm's law. Current is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance. As the voltage goes up so does the current. An example, I = W/E, 1000 watt heater at 110 volts = 9 amps. R = E/I = 110/9 = 12 ohms of resistance in the 1000 watt heater. Now take the 1000 watt heater and using the same formula and at 220 volts. I = E/R, Amps = Volts / Resistance. 220/12 = 18 amps. As you can see ohm's law holds true, the current is directly proportional to the voltage. To answer the question, NO, a 110 volt heater will not run on a 220 volt circuit. It will draw double the current it is designed for and the thermal safety trip will shut the unit off. Bypassing the thermal trip will elevate the temperature of the heater to a combustible state and this can cause a fire if the surrounding material is of a combustible material. Connecting to a 15 amp breaker will trip the breaker.
A 1500 watt heater operating on 120 volts has an amperage of A = W/V. Amps = Watts/Volts = 1500/120 = 12.5 amps. As you can see if you plug two heaters into the power strip the trip on the power bar will trip or if no trip on the power bar then the breaker feeding the power bar will trip.
It depends on the voltage of the supply and the correct required voltage for the heater, which should be the same. But 1500 watts is not a very heavy load so a heavy duty power cord should be all right. At 120 volts the cord should be able to supply 12.5 amps.
You can draw up to 3,300 watts from a 220V 15 Amp circuit. So the 1,800 watts you are drawing is fine.
You would be using a maximum of 12.5 amps. Your should not hook anything else to that line.
Each heater should draw a little over 4 Amps. As long as you have nothing else on circuit you should be okay. Typically you want to be at about 80% or rated load.
Yes you can, as long as you don't use the full power, and always keep it in low.
Edenpure heaters produce 1500 watts. It is an electric heater, which uses quartz heating element to generate heat.
yes, 1500 watts is1500 watts even if it is 15 100 watt light bulbs.
You can use a power bar that needs 1500 watts or less.
By the definition of power which is (p)=IV, if a 1500 watt Electric Fireplace is plugged in a 220v AC source, the expected current will be (I)=P/v. ie 1500/220=6.8A This is when the power loss due to cable resistance is neglected.
Amps = Watts / (Volts x Power Factor). Now a hair dryer has a motor and a resistive heater so if we assume a PF = .8 the answer is: 1500 / 20 = 75 amps. Since it is unlikely that you have a 75 amp hair dryer you must mean 125 volts. The answer for that would be 1500 / 100 = 15 amps which is still high, but believable. If we assume a Power Factor of 1 and ignore the motor contribution to Power Factor we have 1500 / 125 = 12 amps.
Yes, a 1500 watt heater operating on 120 volts has an amperage of A = W/V. Amps = Watts/Volts = 1500/120 = 12.5 amps. It is not a recommended practice to do so.
Edenpure heaters produce 1500 watts. It is an electric heater, which uses quartz heating element to generate heat.
Yes. They produce 1500 watts of heat. You can buy 1500 watt heaters for $19.95 elsewhere. They may be quieter and in a nice wood frame, but 1500 watts is 1500 watts--the same amount of heat. Ask any physics teacher and they'll tell you this. Edenpure proves that you can sell anything for any price if your marketing is good enough.
yes, 1500 watts is1500 watts even if it is 15 100 watt light bulbs.
no you can not it would ruin your system for good. You have to get a heaters with the same watts
.40 to a buck depending...
Most ceramic heaters are about 1500 watts. If that's the case, you're paying between 20 and 60 cents per hour of usage at full power. 1500 times .001 times your consumption rate. (Usually between 8 and 30 cents, depending on what state you live in)
There are several places online that offers this type of product. One place that you can get this is at http://www.lightinguniverse.com/heaters/fangio-lighting-heat-pure-1500-purifier-space-heater-black_g757238.html
The APC 1500 has a standard power of 865 watts/1500 VA. The APC 1500 has an output of 120V and an output of 120v. The specifics of the model can be found on the official website.
Power feed for what?
You can use a power bar that needs 1500 watts or less.
