Each electrical equipment draws a different amperage. Most residential dishwashers draw about six amps.

There has to be a specification sticker on the inside of the door of the dishwasher ,which must such information stated on it.

Commercial dishwashers could draw sixty amps and be using three phase power!!

How much amperage do headlights draw?

Depends on the wattage of the bulb. Formula is Power (watts) = Voltage * Current (A). Therefore for a 55w bulb, in a 12V car, bulb draws 4.6Amps.

Why do we use thicker wires for heaters than for lamps?

Heaters draw a lot more amperage. As your amperage increases, so does resistance to the flow of the current. Too much resistance, and your wire overheats, melts the casing, and can potentially catch fire.


Can using larger wire sizes reduce amp draw?

Using larger wire sizes will not reduce amp draw. The amp draw is determined by the electrical device or load connected to the circuit, not the wire size. Larger wire sizes are used to reduce voltage drop and heat generation in the wiring, but they do not directly affect the amp draw of the circuit.


Can you run a motor of greater amperage draw with a motor of less amperage draw?

It looks like you are asking if a higher amperage motor can replace a lower amperage motor. It depends on what the amperage difference is. If the amperage is high enough to move the capacity of the wire out of its rated value then it should not be done.Remember motor conductors have to be rated at 125% of the motors nameplate amperage. As the amperage increases so does the HP and the motor's protection will also have to be increased or the motor will trip the lower overload protection settings.Also keep in mind that if the motor is three phase, running a motor with higher HP on a load that does not need the extra HP, it will lower the power factor of the supply distribution.
