What type wire is best for automotve DC current?
Copper or aluminum AWG. As for gauge and such, it depends on how much amperage you have running through it, and the length of wire.
What size breaker do i need for a central heat and air unit?
The breaker type be it a single pole or double pole will depend on what voltage the air conditioner operates on. Once the voltage is established, the sizing of the breaker depends on what the current draw of the air conditioner is.
Running watts for a hps lamp?
The formula you are looking for is W = Amps x Volts. Find the amperage and voltage that is on the nameplate of the HPS fixture's ballast.
Can a 4 ton central air conditioner run off a 30 amp breaker?
You could probably run it, but you'll never START it, even if you remove the safety interlock that makes sure it wont start unless the indoor air handler portion is already running.
How many amps does a 2 ton 14 SEER Trane AC draw at startup and running?
The answer you are looking for is on the condensing unit tag. It`s listed as FLA or (full load amps) or RLA (running load amps). Start up amps are appx 5 to 6 times this # but this current is only drawn very briefly. Be sure to add both the compressor and fan motor amperage to get total current draw of the unit. The control power is supplied by the indoor unit so that is not a factor.
Is amperage rating and running amperage the same thing?
Usually the current rating for a circuit is higher than the current usually taken. This leaves a little margin for safety.
Why can you smell ammonia when your central air conditioner is running?
there is a leak in the compressor...
Central air conditioner is only blowing warm air?
low on refrigerant or the compressor isn't running..
What does LRA mean in electrical terms?
Locked rotor amperage is the amperage the motor draws when the voltage is first applied to the motor and the rotor has not started to turn. This amperage is usually up to 300% of the motors running amperage. Once the rotor starts to turn the motor generates a back EMF (electro motive force) that opposes the high inrush current. This back EMF drives the amperage down until the motor gets up to its rated speed at which time the motor amperage will be at its run amperage.
Does running air conditioner affect battery?
If your alternator is putting out the required amperage, usually around 14, the A/C system, and all other systems, will run without any drain on the battery.
What type wire is best for automotve DC current?
Copper or aluminum AWG. As for gauge and such, it depends on how much amperage you have running through it, and the length of wire.
Will running an air conditioner on fan only cost as much as running on cool?
No. Running an air conditioner on fan does not cost as much as running on cool.
Why does Auto air conditioner makes clicking noise when turned on?
central airconditioner makes a clicking noise when running? any idea what to check?
What could be wrong if running the central air conditioner blows the power to the whole house?
Condensor is overloading. Had the same problem last year.
Does running the air conditioner in your car waste gas?
You will use more gas when your air conditioner is running.
Why does condensation leaks from pipe on central air unit when the air conditioner is running is this normal?
Because it's pumping freon through the pipe and its freezing cold
Should windows be closed when running only the fan on the central air conditioner?
keep it closed the windows .but if need fresh air from outside , open the windows.
