What is the number of AMPS for a 240V 2400 watt water heater?
Watts = Amps x Volts for a resistive load like a water heater.
How many amps to run a oil fired hot water heater?
None.
What size wire do you need to operate 17250 watts tankless water heater the wire run about 45 ft?
That would be one huge wire!. I've never seen a tankless water heater being powered by a single wire. They are usually 3 separate 40 or 50 amp circuits that use three separate 2 pole breakers. Check your wiring diagram that comes with the unit.
How many watts or amps draw on a GE water heater model se50m12aa01?
The GE water heater SE50M12AA01 is a 5500 watts or 5.5 Kilowatts water tank. The amperage on such a tank is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. Since most hot water tanks in North America use a voltage of 240, the amps will be 22.9 amps. It must be fed with a #10 conductor from a 30 amp breaker.
What are the full load amps on a water heater thermostat should range between?
7.5 -10
How many amps do electric water heaters use?
A typical domestic water heater uses 3 kW. On a European 230 v system it would use 13 amps.
If a heater claims to be 1500 watts how long would it take for that heater to draw 1500 watts?
Watts is the amount of power the heater has and amps would be the draw- if it is a 120 volt heater than the amps would be 12.5 amps and it is instantaneous
How many amps does a 50 gallon water heater with 2-4500 watt elements draw?
30
How do you change a heater from 120 volts 3a to 240 volts 1.5 a?
the simplest solution is by connecting two 120v 3amps heater in series , the same can be used directly on 240v. However the current drawn will still be 3 amps & Not 1.5 amps. The heater output power will be double that of a single heater running on 120v. ( or equvalent to two heaters operating on 120v. supply ) A more expensive method is to use a stepdown transformer which can be powered on 240v & connect the heater on the transformer 120v side. this method will consume approx. 1.5 amps from the 240v supply.
How many amps does a block heater draw?
To answer this question the wattage of the block heater must be stated. Amps = Watts/Volts.
How many amps do you need if you have a 480 volt space heater?
The heater should have a wattage rating (very few list amps). Calculate the amps using the wattage and voltage. Amps = Watts/Volts(480).
How many amps can be drawn off 1kw?
depends on voltage.... 120volt = 8.33 amps , 240volt = 4.17 amps
