i went onto whirlpool's site and checked a basic electric range for some specs.
here's a cut and paste from there:
Electrical Requirements
15 Amps. 60 Hz. 120 V.
A gas stove does not use any electricity.
There are grills of many different amps. Your regular stove top ones are about 15 amps. Individual grill machines for countertop use must have amps usage printed on the label.
A gas stove uses natural gas or propane.
Chemical because a gas stove is using propane
It depends on the stove. If you can find the manual, or look up the AMPs it uses. Should be around 50. Multiply 120V if you live in the US. By the number of Amps. That will give you the total amount of watts.
no
It is not possible for a personm to use the LP gas orificesfrom a Hotpoint stove to convert a Frigidaire stove. Gas lines should only be connected or converted by a professional.
No. I wouldn't try it. Check on the number of amps that the stove uses. Then you can calculate what size wire you will need. The amp rating on a #12 wire is 20 amps. A 240 volt stove needs a minimum of 40 amps. This supply is brought to the stove on a #8 wire rated at 45 amps R90 insulation. This supply wire is protected by a two pole 40 circuit breaker situated in your electrical panel. If you use a #12 wire and apply the total stove load, the insulation will melt off the wire and short out.
you dont
its fuel source is gas. Natural gas. or for a caping stove propane. you can buy the little cans at Longs/CVS.
we use natural gas in stove-top cooking.
An average home nowadays has a 200 amp panel. The dryer and stove use 30 and 40 amps and almost everything else is 15 amps.
