All of the information is on the nameplate that is located behind the heating element or the units junction box. The wattage and voltage of the baseboard heater will be shown stamped on the plate. The high to low setting on the heater has nothing to do with the wattage and voltage of the unit. All the control does is limit the time that the unit is in the on position. In the low position the heater will cycle on and off until the lower set point is reached to shut the unit off. When the heater is in the high position the unit will stay on and cycle longer until the higher set point is reached. The longer the heater stays on the more it costs to operate. The wattage remains the same regardless of whether the setting is on high or low.

Why does a toaster draw a lot of current?
all electric heaters draw a lot of current (voltage times current = watts [or power]) and a toaster heats bread (no it toasts Bread)
Can a DT830 digital multimeter measure voltage on an electric fence?
Yes, a DT830 digital multimeter can measure voltage on an electric fence, provided the voltage is within the multimeter's range. However, keep in mind that electric fences often use pulsed DC voltage, which may not be accurately displayed by the multimeter if it is not designed to measure pulsed signals. Additionally, safety precautions should be taken when working with electric fences to avoid electric shock. Always ensure the multimeter is set to the correct voltage setting before measurement.
Is output of electric fence charger ac or dc?
The output of an electric fencer is a high voltage pulse of DC voltage.
How do you calculate voltage drop for starting motor current and how to get the starting pf?
How do you calculate voltage drop for starting motor current
Can you calculate power by multiplying voltage and current?
Not enough information. Power = current x voltage. Since voltage can be anything, there is no way to calculate power. Time is irrelevant; though once you have the power, it can help you calculate energy (energy = power x time).
What type of thermostat is typically used with electric baseboard heaters?
Line-voltage thermostats are typically used with electric baseboard heaters.
What is the electric field voltage equation and how is it used to calculate the electric field strength at a given point in space?
The electric field voltage equation is E V/d, where E is the electric field strength, V is the voltage, and d is the distance between the charges. To calculate the electric field strength at a given point in space, you can use this equation by plugging in the values of voltage and distance to find the electric field strength.
What is the accelerating voltage formula used to calculate the energy of charged particles in an electric field?
The accelerating voltage formula used to calculate the energy of charged particles in an electric field is E qV, where E is the energy, q is the charge of the particle, and V is the voltage.
How many electric heaters can you put on a 2 pole 15 amp breaker?
2800 watts at 240 volts would give you the 80 percent derated ampacity. <<>> Without a voltage voltage being stated, an answer can not be given. Electric heaters are sized by wattage and are used on many different voltages. Wattage is the product of amps times volts. So as you can see without the voltage the question can not be answered.
How do we calculate?
V = I x R V = voltage, I = Current, R = Resistance or it can be calculate like this V = P / I V = Voltage, P = Electric Power, I = Current
What is the best Electric wall heater voltage?
The higher the voltage the better since it means less current and therefore smaller wire size for the same wattage. The higher the voltage the better since it means less current and therefore smaller wire size for the same wattage.
What is the equation is used to calculate electric power?
The equation to calculate electric power is P = IV, where P represents power in watts, I represents current in amperes, and V represents voltage in volts.
How a electric heater works 2 references?
An electric heater is a resistor that dissipates electric power when a voltage is connected across it and a current flows through it. The amount of power in watts is equal to the voltage times the current in amps. Typical space heaters for use in the home are 1.5 kW to 3 kW to heat a single room.
Why does a toaster draw a lot of current?
all electric heaters draw a lot of current (voltage times current = watts [or power]) and a toaster heats bread (no it toasts Bread)
How do yo calculate electric power and energy use?
Power = voltage x current Number of power in volts

How do electric compainies usually calculate electrical energy?
They usually just measure current used and assume a known voltage.
