This may vary by make and model of toaster and the intended operating voltage.
For a North American toaster designed to operate on a 15 ampere outlet at 120 volts RMS, the hot resistance cannot be any less than 8 ohms. By their nature, heating elements have a lower resistance when cold, so an 8 ohm element needs to be used on a circuit that is protected by a thermal time-delay circuit breaker; an ordinary fuse is likely to burn out during the several seconds it takes for the element to heat up and the current to reach the steady-state "hot" current. Due to the uncertainty of the circuit protection scheme, manufacturers will limit the current, and thus the power level of appliances such as toasters to something less than the maximum theoretical capacity of the circuit. For example, a toaster with an 8 ohm steady state hot resistance will draw 1800 watts. More realistically, the device will be designed to draw 1200 watts, and thus its hot resistance will be 12 ohms.
What else can I help you with?
How many amperes will the toaster draw if it has a resistance of 24 ohms?
It depends on how many volts it has.
A toaster draws 8 A of current with a voltage of 120 V?
The voltage is the main power of a toaster!! but if the current flow is low the heat of the toaster is less heat that you expect, the 8 A is right for your toaster!!!
How many ohms is 366.3 kilohms?
That is 366,300 ohms.
How many ohms in a terra ohm?
One tera means 1012. So 1 Teraohm = 1012 ohms. One trillion ohms
You have 240 volts20 amperes and how many ohms?
R = U / I = 240 / 20 = 12 Ohms.
How can I test the dishwasher heating element to ensure it is functioning properly?
To test the dishwasher heating element, you can use a multimeter set to the ohms setting. Disconnect the power to the dishwasher and remove the heating element. Place the multimeter probes on the terminals of the heating element and check for continuity. If there is no continuity, the heating element is faulty and needs to be replaced.

How can I test the dryer heating element to determine if it is functioning properly?
To test the dryer heating element, you can use a multimeter set to the ohms setting. Disconnect the dryer from the power source and locate the heating element. Remove the wires connected to the heating element and place the multimeter probes on the terminals of the heating element. If the multimeter reads a low resistance, the heating element is functioning properly. If the reading is high or infinite, the heating element may be faulty and needs to be replaced.
How can I perform a test on a dryer heating element to determine if it is functioning properly?
To test a dryer heating element, use a multimeter set to the ohms setting. Disconnect the dryer from power, then locate the heating element and remove the wires. Place the multimeter probes on the terminals of the heating element and check the resistance reading. If the reading is within the specified range for your dryer model, the heating element is functioning properly.

Is a toaster convection or conduction?
Toasters have aluminum on the outside and heating bulbs on the inside. The heating bulbs heat up inside the body and warm the bread at high temperatures. The bread then becomes crisp and springs up out of the toaster.
How can you determine if a water heater element is bad?
To determine if a water heater element is bad, you can use a multimeter to test for continuity. Disconnect the power to the water heater, remove the access panel, and locate the heating element. Set the multimeter to the ohms setting and touch the probes to the terminals of the element. If the multimeter reads infinite resistance, the element is bad and needs to be replaced.

How much current flows through a toaster with a resistance of 14 ohms when it is connected to a 120 volt outlet?
Using Ohm's Law (V = IR), we can calculate the current flowing through the toaster. Given V = 120V and R = 14 ohms, we can rearrange the formula to solve for I: I = V/R. Plugging in the values, we get I = 120V / 14 ohms ≈ 8.57 amps.
At 120 vac what is the amp draw of total resistance series circuit with 5 ohms 10 ohms 20 ohms?
The net effective resistance of 5 ohms, 10 ohms, and 20 ohms in series is 35 ohms.The current through the net effective resistance is [ I = E/R ] = 120/35 = 3.429 Amp. (rounded)Note: If you try this at home, be aware that these resistors will dissipatethe 5 ohm . . . 58.8 wattsthe 10 ohm . . . 117.6 wattsthe 20 ohm . . . 235 watts .These are no ordinary resistors, such as hang on the wall in plastic bags at Radio Shack.These would have to be 'power' resistors ... like heating coils in a toaster or hair-dryer.
