Are electric baseboard heaters efficient?
Amps and Watts measure different things. An Amp is a measure of electrical current and a Watt is a measure of Power. Which ever device draws the higher amperage will be the one that uses more electricity! Hence the 240 watt heater draw less amps even though it uses more watts: Volts Watts/Electical Current Amps/Power example heater 240 volt draws 2000/1000 watts - but uses 8.3/4.2 amps example heater 120 volt draws 1500/750 watts - but uses 12.5/6.3 amps
What size breakers are needed for two 500 watt baseboards?
Each baseboard heater will draw a little over 4 amps at 120 volts or 2 Amps at 240 volts. The total number of baseboards on a circuit will draw the sum of these amps. Keep the load under 80% of the amperage rating of the breaker.
Would static electricity be the cause of a ceiling light continuing to blow a fuse?
No. There is an excessive current draw, possibly in the form of a short circuit. Get an electrician to check it and fix it before you set fire to house.
Can you run a 110v heater on 220v circuit?
No.It'll overload and fail just about immediately.It's possible - but not recommended - to run two 110 v heaters in series from a 220v circuit.
Draw the diagram?
There are many places where you could learn to draw a diagram. The internet is a great resource for example.
Are baseboard heaters very reliable and where can I buy them at?
Baseboard heaters are an excellent way to heat your home. There are two main types, water radiator and electric radiator. Both types draw in cool air from the floor, heat it, and then force it up the walls. This creates circulation in the room and allows an even heat. They can be purchased from local home centers like Lowe's or Home Depot.
How do you connect a water heater to a power inverter?
the trick is to find an inverter large enough to handle the load of a hot water heater, things such as water heaters, air condition units draw lots of electricity
Is your baseboard heater using power when a single-pole thermostat is set to low?
Your thermostat is just a temperature switch. A switch just breaks the circuit to stop the current from flowing. When you set a position on the thermostat you are telling the switch when to come on and when to shut off depending on the room temperature. If it is set to low then the base board heater will not come on until the low set-point is reached. When the room warms up to above the set-point the baseboard heater will shut off. If your concern is about a 240 volt baseboard heater and just a single pole on the thermostat do not worry. Breaking one leg of a 240 volt circuit will stop the current flow and the heater will not operate.
Why does a toaster draw a lot of current?
all electric heaters draw a lot of current (voltage times current = watts [or power]) and a toaster heats bread (no it toasts Bread)
How do you draw a model of electricity for a torch?
Carrot cake
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.

How do you make electricity in pocket god?
make a storm then draw a line from it on the a guy.
Is it safe to plug a heater into an extension cord?
It is generally not safe to plug a heater into an extension cord because heaters draw a lot of power and can overload the cord, potentially causing a fire hazard. It is recommended to plug heaters directly into a wall outlet to ensure safety.
Draw conclusions what impact did electricity have on industry?
Essentially, electricity has helped create the "idea" of industry. Electricity helped industrial production on scales never seen before (aka mass production).
