Assuming we are talking about 2300 BTU per hour, take 2300 and divide by the number of BTUs per watt-hour, 3.414, giving 673 watts. Then divide this by the voltage, 240, giving 2.81 amps.
9000 BTU/hour is equivalent to 2300 watts so the heater will draw 10 amps on 230 volts.
500,000 watts/240 volts = 2,083.34 Amps (single phase)
41.666 amps. Divide watts by volts.
To find amps if watts and volts are known, use the formula; watts / volts = amps or 5000 / 240 = 20.83 amps
Watts = amps x volts, Amps = Watts/Volts, 65/240 = .27 amps or 270 milliamps
9000 BTU/hour is equivalent to 2300 watts so the heater will draw 10 amps on 230 volts.
500,000 watts/240 volts = 2,083.34 Amps (single phase)
41.666 amps. Divide watts by volts.
The equation that you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
To find amps if watts and volts are known, use the formula; watts / volts = amps or 5000 / 240 = 20.83 amps
At 120 volts it will pull 4.166 amps. At 240 volts it will pull 2.08 amps.
For a single phase circuit, the equation you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
1000 /240 = 4.17
1000
Watts = amps x volts, Amps = Watts/Volts, 65/240 = .27 amps or 270 milliamps
You need the formula: Amps * Volts = Watts But you get to do the math.
Volts isn't power. Volts times amps is power, also known as watts. Thus 480 volts at 2 amps consumes 960 watts, which is the same power usage of 240 volts at 4 amps or 120 volts at 8 Amps.
