How many amp does it take to operate an electric furnace?
Electric furnaces are rated in Kilowatts. The following formula will let you figure it out. Watts = amps x volts. For eg. a 10 Kw furnace draws 10000 watts. amps = watts/volts. 10000/240 = 41.6 amps. If your furnace differs from this example, just plug in your wattage and you will have your answer.
Will a 7000 starting amps and 10500 running amps run a 78 amp furnace?
In the electrical trade the only time there is a reference to start and running amps is when dealing with motors. The running amps is always lower than the starting amps. A 78 amp electric furnace will take a 100 amp service for it to operate and be within the electrical code guide lines.
Why does the blower take 2 minutes to start on forced air furnace?
There is a delay on the fan to allow the furnace to get hot so as not to blow cold air into the home at start up. There is also an `OFF` delay, where the fan runs for a minute or so after the flame shuts off. This is to cool down the furnace.

0.0001 amps will stop your heart if you are fully grounded.
How many amps does a 240v electric heater take?
The question is not relevant. 240 volts refers to the "potential", and amps refers to the current. Potential * current = watts, or energy. You can have 240 volts at 1 amp, which will result in 240 watts, or you can have 240 amps at 1 volt which would also result in 240 watts.
How many volts does it take to kill a human?
it doesn't matter how many volts pass through your body, its the amps as little as 0.1 amps can kill a human

To answer this question the voltage needs to be known.
How many amps do 8 40 watt fluorescent lights take?
It depends on the voltage and whether the lamps are actually 40 watts or 40 watt equivalent. Watts / volts = amps
How many amps does one light use?
You just have to divide the watts by the voltage to find the amps. For example 60 watts on a 120 v system would take ½ amp.
