10/3 wire with 30 amp double pole breaker from panel box to water heater.
The Electric fan heater was invented by Richard Cameron Ward in 1935. It consisted of an enclosed circular drum with a wound wire on ceramic mounted heating element secured on short struts in front of a standard 'Boys' 12" Desk fan. Although Cameron Ward took out a provisional patent the idea was taken and finally commercialised by the General Electric Company. Ward went on to become the Superintendant engineer at Windsor Castle.
normally 8 gauge wire is used for electric heat furnaces.
this happen due to sudden amount of voltage drop in the main feeder due to large current drawn by the heater , so this drop in voltage will let the bulb operate by avltage of a mount (V-Vd) [where V represent the supply voltage and Vd represent the voltage drop in the main feeder of the circuit] , which is less than the voltage before the heater is connected and due to this situation the current passes through the wire of the bulb will be less and therefore the brightness of the bulb becomes dim.after a while the wire of the heater will has high temperature which increase its resistance and due to this the current drawn by the heater will decrease than the current at the first time , therefore the drop in voltage will also decrease , which implise increase in current drawn by the bulb and therefore the dimness decrease .
the metal casing of the electric kettle
-kettle -electric heater that's all i have! :)) When a current passes through a wire, the wire heats up. This is caused by the conversion of electrical energy into heat energy. /the heat produced depends on the resistance of the wire.
It doesn't
Basically like any other electric heater. There's a coil of insulated wire through which current is passed. This heats the wire which is contained within the iron and heats it. The wire may not itself be insulated. It may just be wound around a non-conducting former like mica with the coils not touching one another and unable to move so they do.
When an electric current passes through a wire, the wire heats up due to the resistance in the material. The current causes electrons to flow through the wire, creating a magnetic field around it. This effect is used in electromagnets and electric motors.
The wire in a light bulb is typically made of tungsten. When an electric current passes through the wire, it heats up and emits light, creating illumination in the bulb. The tungsten wire has a high melting point, allowing it to withstand the heat generated during operation.
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.
Nichrome wire s the usual material because i s cheap
To wire an electric baseboard heater, you need to connect it to a dedicated circuit breaker in your electrical panel using the appropriate gauge wire. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and local electrical codes for proper installation. It is recommended to hire a licensed electrician for this task to ensure safety and compliance.
An immersion electric heater usually uses nichrome wire as the heating element. Nichrome is highly resistive, and by applying a voltage, we can get it pretty hot. Nichrome is used as the heating element in toasters and on electric range elements as well as lots of other places.
Typically, a tungsten filament wire is used in light bulbs to produce light when an electric current passes through it. The wire heats up and produces light due to the resistance of the material.
An electric heater is an electric appliance that convert electrical energy in to heat. Working principle of an electric heater as per "Joule heating theory" When electric current passes through a resistor that electric energy convert to heat (best and simple example is a spring type heating element). When Voltage applied both end of a wire/spring type Resistance wire, voltage flow and this voltage help that wire to heat up and convert in to heat. A Resistance wire quality, length & thickness depend how many time heat spread and resist with that heat. K.watt/ Watt = Applied voltage x Ampere. Many quality and types of electric heating elements are there depend upon purpose of use. Few best heating elements known as Kanthal wire, Nicrome wire, Ureka wire, Super Kanthal, Silicon Carbide heating elements etc.
The most reliable source for an electric baseboard heater wiring diagram is the manufacturer's official website or the user manual that came with the heater. These sources provide accurate and detailed information on how to properly wire the heater for safe and efficient operation.
