Any other appliance that runs on 1200 Watts would use the same amount of energy in an equal time.

But computer power supplies do not always run to their full capacity, so 1200 Watts is the maximum output it can supply if needed, in which case it would probably take 5-10% more than that from the supply.

Appliances using a simlilar power are a toaster or an iron.

What happens to your appliances if there is not enough power and the power trips?

If there is not enough power and the power trips, your appliances will lose power abruptly. This sudden loss of power can cause damage to sensitive electronics and appliances, particularly if the power surges when it returns. It is recommended to use surge protectors and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) devices to protect your appliances in such situations.


What is the effect of overvoltage on kwh usage?

Overvoltage can lead to increased kilowatt-hour (kWh) usage because it causes electrical appliances to operate less efficiently. When an appliance is subjected to higher voltage than it requires, it may draw more current, leading to increased energy consumption and subsequent higher kWh usage. Additionally, overvoltage can potentially damage appliances, resulting in increased energy consumption or even complete malfunction.

If more and more appliances will be connected in a parallel circuit what do you think will happen?

Appliances have to be connected in a parallel circuit to keep the voltages the same for each appliance (they were designed to work with one voltage) , this does not mean that the power output will be the same, the more appliances there are the more current (i.e. power) will be needed to for the appliances and this can go on until the grid cannot supply any more (and you blow a fuse)

Why do some appliances have step down transformers built into them?

Because the appliances operate at voltages that are lower than the mains (supply) voltage.


Does a toaster use electric if plugged in?

Toasters and similar appliances use no power unless they are operating. Even if they are plugged into a mains supply, no current will be drawn unless the bread carrier is lowered to its operating position. However, it is good practice to disconnect appliances if they are not going to be used for long periods of time.

Transformer works on DC supply?

To convert DC (battery) to AC to run household appliances you need an "inverter". Because they are usually hooked up to a car battery (12V) they can't provide too much power. Usually enough to run lights, a small refrigerator, TV or laptop computer OR similar low power equipment.


Can you use number of appliances on a single transformer?

You can use multiple appliances as long as long as you don't draw more current than the transformer can supply.
