No, because 15 Amps is 2.5 Amps more than 12.5 Amps, so how can they be the same? It would be interesting to know exactly why you asked this question: is it really about a home electric appliance or a motor or something else which takes electrical power?

No, unless it's a gas range. An electric range requires 240V and 40A while a small appliance will be 120V and Max 15A.

If it fits you are fine. You are at the same current and the voltage rating is higher.

How do you upgrade from 120V 15A to 120V 20A or from 240V 20A to 240V 30A?

You have to replace the wire (as you are increasing the current capacity), the outlet, and the breaker. Essentially you have to remove the old circuit and put in a new one. You can't reuse parts of the old circuit as you are increasing the current capacity and they would be underrated.

Calculate 120Volt 15 amp appliance kWh?

Well, a 120V appliance that draws 15A would be using 1800W. (15x120). A killowatt hour is one killowatt used continuously for an hour. If you used that device for one hour straight, it would use 1.8 kWh. (Keep in mind the device may not draw a full 15A)

Can you hook your 120v 12amp treadmill up to a 125vac 15a power cord?

Yes. The "15A" rating of the power cord is the MOST current it should carrybefore it might get hot and become dangerous. You can safely use it foranything that draws 15 Amps of current or less. Your treadmill only needs 12 Amps.Another example:If you plugged lots and lots of light fixtures into that power cord, you would nottotal up to 15A until you had more than 1800 watts of light bulbs powered from it.


Can you use a 600v fuse in a 120v circut?

Yes, as long as the amp rating is the same. Examples, 600v 100amp fuse can be used in a 120v 100 amp's location.
