What size breaker should you use if you have a 1500 and a 1000 watt heater run together?

The size of the breakers depends on the voltage. According to the NFPA electrical standard (USA), if the two heaters you describe are "120 volt plug-in" then they are not allowed on the same circuit. Two circuits are needed. The largest general use circuit allowed for 120 volt receptacles is 20 amps and this will not handle your two appliances. An exception may exist if they are hard wired to a dedicated circuit, or if they are 240 volt.

Yes, considering you can do that on 15 amp breaker easy.Experience in construction field. The worst that will happen is that the breaker will trip off after a few minutes.In the formula W = A x V. W = 20 x 120 = 2400 watts. If you want you can operate two 1000 watt lamps from a 20 amp breaker operating on 120 volts.

Can i use 10amp fuse for 1000 watts instant heater?
There are zero amps in 1000 watts. Watts are the product of amps x volts or I = W/E, watts divided by voltage. As you can see, that if no voltage is stated no amperage can be given. Once you find the voltage of the heater then use the following equation, Amps = Watts/Volts to find the current draw of the 1000 watt heater.
How many kilowatts per hour consumed by a 1000 watt heater?

How does 1000 plus 40 1000 30 1000 20 1000 10 make 4100?
Because you're simply adding everything together !.. 1000+40 = 1040 1000+30 = 1030 1000+20 = 1020 and 1000+10 = 1010... Add everything together and you get... 4000+40+30+20+10 which is 4100 !
