How do you know what the voltage of your electric baseboard heater is if there is no label on the heater?
Go to your power panel and look for two pole breakers. If there are any 20 amp two pole breakers there is a good chance that they are for the baseboard heaters. Switch this breaker off and turn your thermostat up. If the baseboard heaters do not come on and get hot then this is the supply for them. A two pole breaker is supplying 240 volts to the heaters. Most likely there will be more that one heater on the circuit. <><><>
As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

How many watts does an electric fan use?
Look on the manufactures label on the fan. Find the amperage and voltage of the device. Multiply these two values together to find the wattage of the device. If the fan operates 24 hours a day, take the wattage and multiply it by the wattage of the fan. This will give you the total wattage that the fan will use in a day. To take it a step further take the total and divide it by 1000 and this will give you the kWh the fan uses. Find out what you are charged by the utility company and multiply the kWh by this number. This will tell you how much it costs to operate the fan for a 24 hour period.
Why are houses wired with parallel circuits?
Because the supply voltage is common to each branch of a parallel circuit, each appliance receives its rated voltage which is necessary for the appliance to operate at its rated power. This is the main reason. Another reason is, should one appliance fail, then -unlike a series circuit- the other appliances will keep working.
When does code require junction box covers to be labeled?
Junction box labeling is required by Code (NEC) on boxes containing fire alarm circuits and circuits fed from emergency power panels backed up by generators. However, it is a good trade practice to always label your j-box covers with the circuit voltage and circuit numbers.
How many circuits allowed in a 150 amp panel?
Panels are different. You can get 150 amp panels with 20 to 30 breaker spaces. The limit is stated by the manufacturer on a label attached to the panel. Hopefully you an find the label, sometimes it is on the inside of the cover

How can you tell if you have a gas or electric water heater?
Read the label. A gas heater will have three plumbing pipes connected.One is a gas supply. An electric heater will only have two plumbing pipes but it will have an electical conduit or electrical wire feed line.
How do I turn off a baseboard heater when there is no visible thermostat?
There is a thermostat somewhere, usually on the wall or on the heater itself. Just turn the breaker off at the breaker box. Label the breaker if it is not already labeled. Once the power is turned off to the unit, you can disconnect the wires inside the heater to permanantly shut down the unit.
If an electric heater has a red blue and green wire that has been cut off how do i know if its 120 volts or 240 volts?
A label.
How can you tell if your water heater is electric or gas?
Look for a gas supply line entering the water heater to determine if it is gas-powered. Electric water heaters will have an electrical cord or conduit connected to them. Additionally, you can check the manufacturer's label on the water heater for specifications.
How much voltage does an electric iron takes?
Electrical devices are built to work with the voltage in your home. All electrical devices use the same voltage, which is either somewhere around 110 V (in some regions) or somewhere around 220 V (in others). Please note that "voltage" is not the same "power", the measure of how fast energy is used. Power (in watts) is basically the product of voltage (in volts) and current (in amperes). Different devices use the same voltage; but devices that use a lot of power (such as electric irons, or showers) use more current.
How can a person determine the maximum voltage that can pass through a fuse?
Read the label.
What is contract manufacturing?
It's where company A hires company B to make products with company A's name on them. Example: Home Depot sells General Electric water heaters. General Electric doesn't own a water heater factory. Instead, they contract with Rheem, who has a huge water heater factory; Rheem makes water heaters to GE's specifications, puts a GE label on them and ships them in GE-labeled packaging.
What is the A current and voltage rating of a desk top computer?
This info is an a label somewhere on you computer.
Can you plug your phone with 120 voltage to 220 voltage in UK?
read the label on your charger if it says 90v to 250V it will be ok it it says 120V it will not be ok
Can you run 240v machine on single phase?
In general, no don't try it. The result will either be damage (e.g. overloaded motor burnout) to the appliance or a severe reduction (e.g. an electric heater giving off only 1/4th its rated heat) in its performance.
Which oven brands come in electric?
GE and Hotpoint brands come in electric, and there are several private-label brands as well.
What is the most energy efficient heater?
Any heater that has the Energy Star label will be very energy efficient. The Honeywell eco line, for instance, are very energy efficient.
