How many amps can a 1000watt inverter handle will it run a 10amp power saw?

A 1,000 watt inverter giving 110 volts is rated at 9 amps.


How many amps does a 400w inverter draw from a 12 volt system?

Power (P), in Watts, is equal to the Voltage (V), in Volts, multiplied by the Current (I), in Amperes. P=V*I Using Algebra to solve for the Current (Amps) that are required: I=P/V Therefore: 2000 Watts / 12 Volts = ~167 Amps Please note, that this is for a 100% efficient inverter. If the inverter is 90% efficient the actual draw would be: Iideal*(1+(1-(%Efficiency/100)))=Iactual 167 Amps*(1+(1-(90/100)))=Iactual 167 A * (1+(1-0.9))=Iactual 167 A * (1+(0.1))=Iactual 167 A * (1.1)=Iactual 183 A = Iactual The continuous current draw for a 90% efficient power inverter, operating from a 12V DC source, out putting 2000W at 120V AC, is 183 Amps.


How many amps do you need in a relay for a 2000 watt RMS 4000 peak power inverter?

Amps x volts equals watts...200 amps at 12 volts would be 2400 watts...add a few more because. the inverter efficiency is not 100 percent...


How do you wire a inverter to my truck?

How many peak amps does it use.


How many amps does a 5000-watt inverter draw from a 24 volt system?

it draws 210 amps


How many amps does a 3000w inverter 240 v draw from a 12 volt system?

It would be at least 250 amps, maybe 300 amps.


How many amps does a 2500 watt inverter use?

If we assume that the inverter is used in your car on 12 Volts DC and you are creating 120 VAC; and the 2500 watts refers to the AC side of inverter then for a resistive load Amps = Watts / Volts = 2500/120.


Is 500 watts of AC power is being drawn on an inverter how many amps are being drawn on the batteries powering the inverter?

Inverter efficiencies vary about 50% when a small about of power is being used, to over 90% when the output is approaching the inverters rated output. Your question cannot be answered without knowing the inverters rated output.


How many amps does a sound system use?

amps like.. amplifiers? it depends on how many speakers you have. or amps like.. current draw? again. depends on your power needs, your power amps... ect


How many watt DC to AC converter do you need to run a 6 amp power tool?

The formula for watts (or power) is Amps times voltage. Therefore with a 6 amp draw times 120 volts would be about 720 watts. A 1000 watt power inverter would do the job.


How many amps from a kilowatt of solar power?

watts are equal to amps times volts.


Can a modified sinewave inverter run a television and a demostic heating pump and and burner?

Work out the total watts of what you want to run on the inverter (rated amps x input voltage) and if the inverter is rated to that many watts it should run the equipment. Best way to find out how the modified wave affects their operation is to try it.
