An electric heater is a resistor that dissipates electric power when a voltage is connected across it and a current flows through it. The amount of power in watts is equal to the voltage times the current in amps.
Typical space heaters for use in the home are 1.5 kW to 3 kW to heat a single room.

Electric heater A has a power rating of 1kw. Electric heater B has a power rating of 800W. which transfers the most energy in 2 hours?
Electric rating of 1Kw
Wiring diagram electric baseboard heater?
Yes, the heater is a 240/120 heater, but I want to operate as 120 volt
A 50 gallon electric water heater that uses 2 elements is normally what voltage?
In North America 240 volts.
Can I you use existing 8 3 wire hooked to a 30amp breaker was hooked to old electric heater to wire a heater that requires 10 2 wire its a 5000watt 240volt heater?
Yes the wire size is larger for that size breaker but will not effect the 30 amp breaker protection of that circuit.
How do you connect a 240 volt electric heater It is a baseboard unit the has a black and red internal wire for connection Do you use 12 2 wire or 12 3 wire The thermostat has 2 red 2 black wire?
2 wire (plus ground) is all you need for a 240 volt heater provided there is no 120 volt accessories in the heater such as a built in convenience receptacle. If cable is used, the white wire of the 2 wire cable will be a HOT-LEG even though it is white-this is one of the code exceptions. The size of the guage is dependent on the size of the load and other factors. 12 guage will handle up to 1500 watts generally.

Where is limit switch on hot water heater?
There are usually 2 on a domestic electric heater, one about a foot from the top and the other near the bottom, both attached to the elements.
When a single phase supply connect to a electric heater short circuit not there why?
The electric heater is basically a resistor, designed to have the right resistance to draw the required current. So a 2 kW heater designed for a 230 v supply is really a resistor of 28.8 ohms, so when it's connected the current is 8 amps and the power is 2 kW.
Why does ac work but not heater?
AC and heater are 2 different systems. The heater works by channeling fluid from your radiator to a heater core usually located under your dash. Heater may not work due to blockage in the line from the radiator or the heater core under your dash may be faulty.
What type of heater is used to heat the air inside a neonatal incubator?
The best heater is the electric heating tube between (100-500)Watt it cost about 0.5-2 USD
A 50 gallon electric water heater that uses 2 elements is normally what voltage?
In North America 240 volts.
How do you install a block heater in a 91 Pontiac sunbird 2 ltr?
You can get a heater that magnetically sticks to the pan and warms the engine. You can get a heater that connects to the heater hose and circulates warm engine coolant. You can also get a block heater that replaces a freeze plug. You have to decide which works best for you.
Your heater quit heating in your 2000 Yukon The blower still works but no heat Why?
Any of the following................... 1. Low coolant level. 2. Clogged heater core. 3. A/C heater controller bad. 4. A/C heater doors not working. 5. Vacuum problems........
Why does the heater work intermittenly on a 99 Mercury Cougar?
What you may be experiencing is a blown resistor. If the heater only works when on 4, but not 3, 2, or 1, then it is most definitely the answer. If it is, there is plenty of info on this at newcougar.org.
