A resistor resists the flow of current in a circuit but a transistor changes the amount of current through a device. This is called current magnification. Field effect transistors FETs and MOSFETs (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) may also change the amount of current to a load lastly a variable resistor or a potentiometer or a variable resistor can variate the amount of current at your will
In an electrical space heater, electrical current dissipates energy into heat, and the heat radiates from the element. In a fuel powered space heater, an orifice throttles the fuel feed (resistance to flow), which controls the heating rate. In a steam powered space heater, an orifice throttles the steam (resistance to flow), which controls the heating rate.
Watts is the amount of power the heater has and amps would be the draw- if it is a 120 volt heater than the amps would be 12.5 amps and it is instantaneous
If the water from the faucet is tepid or cold, it might be time to check the electric hot water heater element. Electric hot water heaters are equipped with two heater elements that heat water. They do so through an electrical current the goes through the element. The lower element does the hard work and is most likely to be the first that burns out. Turn off the electricity, and disconnect the wires at the heating element terminals. Set the multimeter to read resistance. Touch the clips on each terminal of the element. If the Ohmmeter doesn't budge, the element is shot.
No, electric heaters work by running electric current through resistors which produces heat. same as an element on an oven range top.
Valco Infrared heater can be used as a space heater. The can save you lots of money on energy costs.
By overheating which will cause a change in the thermostat materials construction.
A. The measure ofelectricalpressure.
An AC water heater can be converted to operate on DC current but the cost will be large. In the electrical trade anything can be done if enough money is spent to get the results that are requested.

Yes, an electrical base board heater can be classified as an appliance.
a nonlinear electrical load, like a battery charger or water heater when present in a power system produces harmonics or rather distortions which leads to improper proportionality of voltage to current. so that's an electrical load
The fuse for the mixture heater wires for a 1998 Nissan D21 for cylinder is an electrical device which interrupts the flow of current when there is overloading.
In an automobile the heated engine coolant heats the air. <><><><> In the case of a heater used in a building, it may burn fuel, such as kerosene or propane, or it may generate heat from electrical current.
You need to read the instructions that come with the heater. Heaters draw a lot a current and you need to install it properly or else risk a fire and damage to your electrical system.

The two most important ratings for an electrical heater are its rated power and its rated voltage, and these will be printed on a 'nameplate' fixed somewhere on the heater (e.g. '3 kW at 230 V').For the heater to operate at its rated power, it must be subject to its rated voltage. In the above example, the heater will only operate at 3 kW if it is supplied with 230 V.If you know the heater's power (P) and its voltage (U), then you can calculate the rated current (I) it will draw from the supply, using the equation: I = P/U.You can also determine its resistance (R), using the equation R = U2/P.
An example of electrical energy changing to heat energy is when an electric heater is turned on. The electrical energy powers the heating element in the heater, which then converts the electrical energy into heat energy that warms up the surrounding area.
