How much electricity should a fan heater 2000 watt use?
The fan has a rated load of 2 kW. It is this wattage times the amount of hours the fan is used times the cost of a kWh in your area that the cost is based on.
How much will a 80w heater use an hour at 0.17.24p per kw?
A heater with a power rating of 80W will consume 0.08 kWh (80W = 0.08kW) of electricity in one hour. Multiplying this by the cost of electricity, which is 0.17.24p per kW, the heater would cost around 1.4p to run for an hour (0.08kW x 0.17.24p/kW).
What is breaker size for 240 volt 9 KW?
The formula you are looking for is I = W/E.
How many BTU per hour is a 1500 watt heater?
Answer1 kW is 3,413 BTUs. Therefore, 1500 Watts = 1.5 kW and 1.5 kW x 3413 BTU/kW = 3 413 * 1.5 = 5 119.5 BTUs per hr for a 1500 Watt heaterwhat is the electric cost/
Is there a difference between KW and kW?
AnswerKiloWatt hours. Its a measure of energy use. It is the amount of power used over time.Energy is the ability to do work, while power is the rate at which work is done.Your water heater may have a power rating of 5 kW. If it runs for 8 hours in a day, you would use 40 kWh of energy doing the work of heating the water.
Can a 100 amp sub main handle a 27 KW Electric water heater wired to 3 40 amp breakers?
You need to say what voltage the heater is running on (it's different in different countries).
How much amperage does a gas clothes dryer draw?
Check the nameplate rating on the door or door frame of your washer, it should tell you the amp rating or the kw rating of the machine. If it only has the KW rating of the machine, simply divide the KW rating by the voltage of the receptacle and it'll give you the current (ampere) rating. Typically, a modern washing machine will draw approximately 7-12 amps. However, anticipate a higher amperage when starting the machine as the machine will draw 1.5X the rated current to start the machine (starting current). Regardless of the amp rating, the NFPA-70 (National Electrical Code) requiresa 20 Amp fuse or circuit breaker; and the circuit for the washing machine must be on its own, dedicated circuit.
How do you calculate the cost of using a 2 kw heater for 6 hours if a unit costs 8 p?
The heater rating times the hours times the cost per kilowat hour.
Can you run a 2 kw convector heater through a 25 amp trip switch at 240 volts?
Yes, the total amperage load of a 2000 watt heater at 240 volts is 8.3 amps. Keep in mind that the wire feeding the heater must be a #10 because the breaker is rated at 25 amps. A wire's ampacity rating can be larger that the breaker amperage rating but never smaller. Example, a #14 rated at 15 amps or a #12 rated at 20 amps can not be connected to a 25 amp breaker. The 25 amp breaker does not trip until it reaches 25 amps well over the allowable amperage of the #14 amd #12 wire. This is why a #10 wire must be used as its rating is 30 amps.
How many kilowatts would a 3 foot baseboard heater use?
A base board heater could be rated at any amount of watts. Their physical size usually has no bearing on the wattage but that being said usually the smaller the physical size the lower the wattage. A three foot unit at 240 volts could be 500 watts or .5 kW. The rating of the heaters is on the back of the heater. If the heater is mounted and you want to know how many watts it is, you will have to remove the heater away from the wall to get to the nameplate. If you have access to a clamp on amp meter, the amperage reading can be multiplied by the voltage of the heater. This will give you the wattage of the device. To find kW divide the wattage of the heater by 1000. The amount that the heater uses in kW s depends on its off and on time cycle. This is referred to as kWh. This is the figure that the utility company uses, times how much they charge for a kWh, to calculate the charge to you for the power that you have used.
How much electricity should a fan heater 2000 watt use?
The fan has a rated load of 2 kW. It is this wattage times the amount of hours the fan is used times the cost of a kWh in your area that the cost is based on.
Can a 1000 watt generator charge 2 x 115ah leisure batteries and run a 2kw fan heater at the same time?
If the fan/heater is heating as well as fanning, then the generator can't even support that alone, never mind the batteries. The generator is rated 1,000 watts, and the fan/heater wants 2 KW = 2,000 watts to fan and heat. That's 100% overload on the poor generator. The generator will complain, and the heater will be barely warm.
How many gallons does a generator use per hour?
Depends upon the Kw rating of the generator. The higher the Kw rating the more fuel will be used.
How can you convert the kva rating into kw rating?
kva*cos(phase angle)
How do you calculate the dc circuit breaker rating for a given kw?
the given kw Divide by the your voltage
How much will a 80w heater use an hour at 0.17.24p per kw?
A heater with a power rating of 80W will consume 0.08 kWh (80W = 0.08kW) of electricity in one hour. Multiplying this by the cost of electricity, which is 0.17.24p per kW, the heater would cost around 1.4p to run for an hour (0.08kW x 0.17.24p/kW).
If I have 80 amp main fuse at distributional head feeding a consumer unit in a large 2 bed 2 bathroom flat can I add Aa 14.4 kW water heater to the system?
