What is the minimum size copper service entrance conductor for 145 amp service?
A #1 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 145 amps.
What is the relationshi between a motors service factor and amperage rating?
define motor service factor? define motor service factor?
What is the fuse rating for a kettle?
A standard 3kW immersion heater will require a fuse rating of 13 A. This is because, it draws a current of 12 A.
Can you use 24v 3a power supply instead of 24 2.3a?
Yes. You can surely use the same one. What matters more is the current rating. If the current rating is more than that required and the voltage is same then it will do.
Can all circuit breakers interrupt large fault currents?
All Circuit Breakers have a current rating and a FAULT current rating. The current rating refers to the current at which the circuit breaker is designed to 'break' the circuit and this is generally shown in Amperes (A). FAULT current rating is generally alot higher rating and is therefor shown in kilo Amperes (kA). This kA rating refers to the amount of current which a circuit breaker is designed to handle under fault conditions and can still maintain operation and 'break' contact. Most household circuit breakers are around 7.5 kA, so any fault over 7,500 Amperes could potentially damage the circuit breaker contacts to the point which it can not open the circuit. Larger fault ratings are found in larger applications such as MCC's on plants, minesites or power stations.
What is a fuse rating?
Fuses have two basic ratings. The first is current rating. The current rating is the amount of current that a fuse will safely pass before blowing. When the current flow through a fuse exceeds its rating, it opens up and breaks the circuit. If a fuse has a 5 A rating, it will open as current flow through it exceeds 5 amps. It is useful to note that there are some fuses that are designated as time delay. These fuses will sustain current in excess to their current rating for a short period before blowing. The fuse that blows immediately when its rated current is exceeded is an instantaneous fuse. The other way fuses are rated is by voltage. So when selecting a fuse, be sure that both the current and voltage rating are suitable for the application.Fuse rating is the permissible minimal current to pass in the fuse element,without causing the fuse to blow or melt.
What is the minimum size copper service entrance conductor for 145 amp service?
A #1 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 145 amps.
When was Dominion Bond Rating Service created?
Dominion Bond Rating Service was created in 1976.
What kind of service is truecredit?
True credit is a program which shows you your current credit rating. It can also show if there has been any attemps at identity theft attached to your own credit rating to stop identity theft.
What is current rating?
.5
Reasons why an instantaneous shower is protected by a 32a fuse?
because it carries a high current rating
What is the current rating of T2L 250v fuse?
The current rating is 2A (2 amps).
What is the maximum current that can flow through a fuse?
A current rating of a fuse is designed to open a circuit at a specific current flow. This rating is imprinted on the fuse and lets you know what the maximum amount of current the fuse is designed to open at. A fuse is in the circuit to protect the conductor that the current flows through. Never over fuse a conductor's current carrying capacity.
How do you compute wattage?
Wattage or power rating of a product can be calculated by multiplying voltage rating and current rating. (Power = Voltage x Current). e.g. if device is working at 12V and 2A is the current rating. It is 24Watt. Since Voltage = Current x Resistance , for a resistive load power can also be calculated by Power = Current x Current x Resistance = I^2 x R = I square R
Is there a rating service for travel nurse agencies?
It sure is a rating service. The one I found for you is at; www.americantraveler.com/best-travel-nurse-agencies/ .
What happens if you use a fuse that's overrated for voltage but has the correct current rating?
Using a fuse correctly rated for current but "overrated" for voltage does not present a problem. Current ratings are critical safety issues, and fuses should be replaced with those of the same current rating. But using a fuse with an identical current rating but a higher voltage rating is not a problem. The reason for that lies in what the voltage rating of a fuse is. Fuses are given a voltage rating to state a maximum voltage in a circuit that they are designed to protect. And the voltage rating has nothing to do with the "normal" operation of the fuse. The fuse carries current when it operates normally, but when something happens and excessive current flows, the fusible link heats up and opens. This is where the voltage rating comes into play. It is possible that a fuse can arc through when it fails. It is the voltage rating that stands in the way of this. As long as the voltage rating of a circuit is not beyond the voltage rating of the fuse, that fuse will fail safely when it fails. It is acceptable to use a fuse of an equal current rating but a higher voltage rating when replacing a fuse that has failed.
