An electric heater is an electric appliance that convert electrical energy in to heat. Working principle of an electric heater as per "Joule heating theory"
When electric current passes through a resistor that electric energy convert to heat (best and simple example is a spring type heating element).
When Voltage applied both end of a wire/spring type Resistance wire, voltage flow and this voltage help that wire to heat up and convert in to heat. A Resistance wire quality, length & thickness depend how many time heat spread and resist with that heat.
K.watt/ Watt = Applied voltage x Ampere.
Many quality and types of electric heating elements are there depend upon purpose of use. Few best heating elements known as Kanthal wire, Nicrome wire, Ureka wire, Super Kanthal, Silicon Carbide heating elements etc.
for a large one it is 4,000 watts and for a smaller one it is 1,000 watts
The amperage of an electric heater depends on its power rating in watts and the voltage it operates on. To determine the amperage, divide the wattage by the voltage (Amperes = Watts / Volts). For example, a 1500 watt electric heater running on 120 volts would use 12.5 amperes (1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 A).
To calculate the amperage for a 240-volt, 1500-watt electric baseboard heater, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For this heater, it would be 1500 watts / 240 volts, which equals 6.25 amps. Therefore, the heater uses approximately 6.25 amps.
1300/1500 watts
It uses 1150 watts, or 10 amps.
For a 1000 BTU heater, the power consumption would be approximately 293 watts. This is because 1 watt is equivalent to 3.41 BTUs.
First you need to find out how many amps the heater draws. Then use this formula: Volts (220) X Amps = Watts Then take: Watts x 3.41214 = Btu/hr
I ASSUME the block heater in a 2006 Ford Freestar would use ( 600 watts ) like my Ford Explorer 4.0 liter V6 engine does
The formula you are looking for is W = I x E.
1150 watt, 10A
An electric toothbrush typically uses around 1-2 watts of power while in use. This is a low power consumption compared to other household devices.
A ceramic heater uses the same amount as a regular heater. Most heater use 1500 watts so in one hour a 1500 watt home heater will use 12.5 amp hours.
