What is amperage?

Amperage is electric current of flow.


What is the amperage of a t2l 250v fuse?

The amperage of a T2L 250v fuse is typically 8 amps. It is a misconception that it has an amperage of 3.


If my AC technician says my unit is rated at 28.9 amps and drawing 24.8 and should draw about half of rated capacity and that compressor needs to be replaced Is this correct?

There are several amperage ratings on AC compressors/motors. Locked Motor Amperage (LRA) is the amperage that the motor is fused for. The load of the motor is expressed in amperage or wattage, which is probably the case here. Low amperage readings on an AC unit being charged by amperage load would indicate low freon. High amperage readings indicate overcharge when charging by the amperage load. AC units are not accurately charged by amperage readings and the efficiency of motors is not expressed in amperage readings.


It is ok to use a fuse with a higher amperage rating and not ok to use a fuse with a smaller amperage rating why?

When a circuit is inductive the current has what voltage?

This doesn't make sense, "current" is "amperage" so the higher the voltage the lower the amperage, and the lower the voltage the higher the amperage.


What does volts times amperage equal?

Voltage is equal to amperage time resistance. V=IR Therefore, I'd say voltage times amperage is equal to amperage squared times resistance. VI=IIR Really there's no point in multiplying the two. However, if you were to divide voltage by amperage, you would have the resistance of the circuit. V/I=R


What is the proper amperage to use with 3-16 7018 on 5-8 plate with 45 bevel?

There is no proper amperage...no such thing as amperage, its called current... measured in amps...


What amp wire should you use for 3000w lights?

Wire size is based on the amperage drawn. To find the amperage, the voltage must be stated. Use this formula to find the amperage. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/ Volts. Once you have the amperage, restate your question using the new found amperage or state the voltage that supplies the lights.

What is the amperage of a 9.6v 1600 mah battery?

The amperage is governed by the load that is connected to the battery circuit. Divide that amperage into the 1.6 amp hours and that will give you the endurance of the battery in hours.


What size wire for 55kw?

Wire is sized by the amperage that it will carry. 5 kW is 5000 watts. The equation to find watts is W = Amps x Volts. The equation to find amps is Amps = Watts/Volts. As you can see a voltage is needed to calculate the amperage. Once the amperage is stated, the wire size can be given for that particular amperage.
