In parallel circuit resistance goes with an inverse relation as:
1/Rn = 1/R1+1/R2+1/R3.....
so Power P = V2/R will follow the same proportionality only.

How many LED lights can you put on a 20 amp circuit?
The electrical code states that circuit conductors that are fed by this breaker on a continuous load can only be loaded to 80%. Therefore you can have a load of 1,920 watts on this circuit. Assuming you install 8 watt bulbs you can have 240 on this circuit.
What is the total load allowed on a 20 amp 120volt circuit can not exceed?
2400 watts.
What is the power of a parallel circuit with a resistance of 1000 ohms and a current of 0.03 amps?
.9 watts.
Will 20 amps handle 3500 watts?
No. 20 amps at 120 volts will handle a maximum of 2400 watts. And you should never continuously load a 20 amp 120 volt circuit to no more than 1920 watts.
A 120-volt household circuit delivers 350 watts of power to an appliance and another 10 watts of power are consumed by the circuit With no ground fault. How much current is carried by the neutral?
Here is my full question - A typical 120-volt household circuit delivers 350 watts of power to an appliance, and another 10 watts of power are consumed by the circuit. There is no ground fault. a. How much current is carried by the hot wire? b. How much current is carried by the neutral? c. How much current is carried by the grounding conductor? d. Calculate the resistance of the circuit: by "consumed by the circuit" I assume you mean consumed by the wires. Assuming resistive loads only, the total load is 360 watts, thus the current is 3 amps. The current flows in the hot and the neutral.
How do you decide which appliances can be used in a circuit without overloading it?
each appliance should have a rating label showing the amps or watts used, Add up these figures to see if they exceed the capacity of the circuit. Amps =watts/voltage
When you have watts in a series circuit do you add up the total or is it the reciprocal?
The power dissipated by the complete circuit, no matter whether it's a series or parallel one, is the simple sum of the power dissipated by each component of the circuit.
The 4017 integrated circuit is a type of what circuit?
led to 250 watts bulb
What a circuit of hair dryer 1200 watts 240 v?
Watts equals volts multiplied by amps. This would therefore be a five amp circuit.
How do you calculate watts to amps?
The most basic calculation is volts multiplied by amps of a circuit for a single phase load.
Which term does not represent electric power in a circuit?
There are many terms that do not represent electric power in a circuit, such as cauliflower, aeroplane and rabbit.Electric power in a circuit is measured in watts (W).
What is the maximum volt-ampere loading permitted on a 20-ampere branch circuit with a continuos load is?
The wattage of the circuit presuming that the circuit voltage is 120 volts. 20 x 120 = 2400 watts. Circuit loading on a continuous load is 80% so 2400 watts x .8 = 1920 watts
Is the equator a paraellel or a meridain?
The equator is the parallel of zero latitude.
How many paraellel sides does a square have?
2 equal pairs
Why does a wall switch 'crackle' and the light flicker?
There is a high current draw on the circuit and the switch is getting old. Change out the switch, see if you can find a 20 amp switch as the internal contacts are designed to take the higher amperage. Check how many lamps are in the circuit in watts, add them together and use the formula for amps. Amps = Watts/Volts (120).
If the voltage in a circuit is 24 volt and the current is 2 A what is the total power in the circuit?
Power = E times I = (24 x 2) = 48 watts
How many watts do you need for 26 amps?
6240 watts if it's on a 240 volt circuit. A better answer is to just learn that amps X volts = watts.
