At 20 amps the 220V will supply twice (2x) the power that the 110V will supply. The answer depends upon your meaning of the term 'better'. If you have a specific size load that you are supplying such as a motor that will accept either 220V or 110V then by using 220V you will have less of an impact from voltage drop and the conductor size will be smaller due to the current being 1/2 of the 110V. If by better you mean which one will give you the most power then the obvious answer is 220V.

How do you size a circuit breaker for a 75 kW generator?
To answer this question the output voltage of the generator must be stated. Breakers are sized to protect the wire that is connected to it. Wire is sized by the amperage that it can carry. Once the voltage is stated use the following equation Amps = kW x 1000/1.73 x Volts x pf. for three phase and Amps = kW x 1000/Volts x pf. In both cases use .9 for a power factor value.
Can a single duplex receptical be wired for 120 volts and a second single duplex receptical be wired for 220 volts if they both reside in the same two gang electrical box?
Yes, the feeder will have to be a three wire cable.
Would South African 230 volts appliance work on 240 volts in Australia?
Yes. Both countries use almost the identical electical electrical systems. The voltage from both an Australian and South Africa outlet can vary from 220v-250volts depending on distance from transformer and current load on the line.
Which is better basidoon or rampados?
If Rampados has earthquake it is better but if basidoon has earthquake it is better. i have to say both
How do you find the current draw of an electrical circuit if you know the voltage and wattage of the device?
The answer you need is found in "Ohms Law." It is expressed like this: Current = watts divided by volts Watts = Volts multiplied by current Volts = Watts divided by current. I recommend you look into the hobby of Amateur Radio and put your knowledge of electronics to a fun use. My wife and I are both 'hams' and love the hobby!
How many amps are used in 241000 kwh in a 3 phase power system?
The voltage can be either 250000 kilovolts or 240 volts, it can't be both so the question can't be answered. <<>> There are zero amps in 250,000,000 volts. Amps can be found using the following equations. Amps = Volts/Resistance in ohms, Amps = Watts/Volts and Amps = Sq root of Watts/Resistance in ohms.
16amps how many watts is it?
There is missing the value of the voltage. We asume V = 120 volts. Powerage = Voltage times current Power = 120 volts times 16 amps = 1920 watts.
Are volts or amps more dangerous?
Both volts and amps can be dangerous, but in general, it is the current (measured in amps) that poses a greater risk of injury or death. High voltage can cause electric shock, but it is the amount of current flowing through the body that determines the severity of the injury.
How many amps are in 1500 watts?
To calculate the amperage for a given wattage, you would need to know the voltage. However, assuming a standard voltage of 120V in a household circuit, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 1500 watts at 120 volts, the amperage would be 12.5 amps.
What is stronger volts or amps?
niether on its own has any power at all its the product of both that creates power volts x amps = watts so 4 amps drawn from a 250v supply = 1kilowatt(1000w) (4x250) and if you keep that up for an hour that equals 1kwh (1 kilowatt hour) or as far as the electricity boards are concerned 1 unit of electricity (GB)
How many watts are in 19.5 volts?
Impossible to know. You need to know both the voltage and current draw to calculate power (watts). Power in watts = Volts X Amps
How many volts is 2 amps?
While Amps and Volts are both units of electrity, they are quite independant. Total electrical energy is measured in "watts". Amps * Volts = Watts. You can get 100 Watts with 10 Volts @ 10 Amps. You can get 100 Watts with 100 Volts @ 1 Amp. You can get 100 Watts with 1,000 Volts at 0.1 Amp. It's like asking, "How do you get water flow of 20 gallons per minute?" You COULD have a 3 ft diameter pipe with very low pressure, or you COULD have a 1/2 inch pipe with very HIGH pressure. Both could give you the desired 20 gallons per minute.
Will a 20 volt connector handle a 12 amp load?
No way of telling, there's no direct translation between volts and amps. When you're sizing breakers and switches, BOTH listed values (volts and amps) should be equal or higher the current and voltage you intend to use them for.
208 volt 12 amps versus 277 volt 6 amps?
It is hard to see a question here. Both of these voltages are currently use in electrical systems today. Both voltages are related to three phase systems. A voltage of 208 volts is a three phase wye system that has a voltage of 208 between lines L1, L2 and L3 and 120 volts between any of the lines and neutral. A voltage of 277 is the line to neutral voltage of a 480 volt three phase wye system. There is a voltage of 480 between L1, L2 and L3 and 277 volts between any of the lines and neutral.
How many dc volts does it take to make 1 horsepower?
Volts don't make power. Watts do. Watts = (volts) x (amps) 1 horsepower = 746 watts (Doesn't matter if the source is AC, DC, or a combination of both.)
Is a 14 amp power tool better than 18 volt power tool?
Not necessarily. Amperage (amps) and voltage (volts) measure different aspects of a power tool's performance. Amperage relates to the tool's power consumption, while voltage relates to its power output. It's important to consider both factors and how they affect the tool's overall performance for your specific needs.
How many watts is in 9 volts?
You can't convert volts to amperes. Those are quite different units; that would be like converting, say, meters to seconds.
