Best Answer

If you had 230 volts on each legs of a power supply that would be true but it is more likely that you are dealing with a circuit that has 115 volts on each leg and the total is 230 volts across both legs. The Power meter on your house supply line will measure and record all aspects of the currents being supplied to the breaker panel.

How do you protect two power in one circuit?

If the question means "two loads in one circuit" then the load currents have to be added together. The breaker that protects the circuit is sized for the total loading of the circuit. These two loads of course will be in parallel with each other. Find the wattage of the two loads if the amperage is not available. The equation is W = A x V. Watts = Amps x Volts. Once the total amperage of the circuit is found select the correct wire size for that amperage. The breaker protects the wire size so then select the proper breaker for that wire size.


If the microwaves has 700 watts what is the amp total?

To find an amperage, you divide the wattage by the voltage.


What happens to the voltage if batteries if they are setup in a parallel and a series circuit?

Assuming all of the individual batteries are the same voltage, if arranged in a parallel circuit the voltage is the same as any one battery. If arranged in a series circuit the voltage will be the sum (the total) of all of the batteries added together.


How do you increase the value of a capacitor?

A: Any additional capacitor added in parallel will effectively increase to total capacitance by that value. Note that additional capacitor added must have the same voltage rating as the other


How many watts does an electric fan use?

Look on the manufactures label on the fan. Find the amperage and voltage of the device. Multiply these two values together to find the wattage of the device. If the fan operates 24 hours a day, take the wattage and multiply it by the wattage of the fan. This will give you the total wattage that the fan will use in a day. To take it a step further take the total and divide it by 1000 and this will give you the kWh the fan uses. Find out what you are charged by the utility company and multiply the kWh by this number. This will tell you how much it costs to operate the fan for a 24 hour period.

What is the average of 27.352?

It is not possible to find out the average of a number without knowing how many numbers were added together to get said number. If there were say, 7 numbers added together to get the total of 27.352, then you would divide 27.352 by 7 to get the average.


Is the exterior angle of a triangle is 180 degrees?

The triangle has three exterior angles. Added together, their total is 180 degrees.(Same as the total of the three interior angles when they're added together.)
