Best Answer

1 kW = 1000 w

So 500 W / 1000 W = 0.5 kW

As soon at the heater is turned on, it starts to use energy at the rate of 500 W = 0.5 kW.

If you leave it on for 10 hours it will have used up 0.5 x 10 = 5 kWh

How many watts are used in a hot water heater?

A typical home hot water heater uses 4800 watts. The circuitry connecting to the tanks is a 20 amp breaker with #12 wire for the connection. The tank draws 20 amps. W = A x V = 20 x 240 = 4800 watts. Some industrial hot water tanks can be rated at four times the size of home tanks.


How many hours can you run a 300 amp load if you have a 300 amp hr battery bank?

A 300 ampere-hour battery can supply 300 amperes for somewhat less, sometimes substantially less, than one hour. It might not even be rated to provide 300 amperes at all. It depends on the battery. The reason for this is that ampere-hour ratings are, by definition, normalized to an eight-hour rate. This means that you can pull 300/8, or 37.5 amperes from that battery for 8 hours. That is the reference point. If you were, for instance, to pull 18.75 amperes, you would expect the battery to last somewhat longer than 16 hours, and if you pulled 75 amperes, you would expect the to last somewhat less than 4 hours, both from a full charge, and both from a recently equalized state. You need to check the published discharge curve for the batter to know for sure.

How many units of electricity does a 3000w heater use in an hour?

A 3000 W water heater is 3 kW water heater. For 30 minutes of operation it would be 3 kW multiplied by 0.5 hours, or 1.5 kWh. One kWh is equal to 3,600,000 Joules, the water heater uses 1.5 times 3,600,000 J, or 5,400,000 J.

How many 12 volt batteries charged by a 600 watt wind turbine would it take to power a 1500 watt heater?

It would depend on the voltage needed by the heater. A 240 v heater would need twenty 12 v batteries connected in series but this is a very dangerous electrical supply that needs proper installation by an electrician. With a load of 6 amps the battery (assuming average car batteries) would supply the heater for about 6-8 hours when there is no wind.
