A double breaker is a breaker that has 2 switches on it. One of the switches is 20 amps and the other is 30 amps.
The equation that you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts / Volts.
Add 25% so it comes to 42 amps
The smallest size in breaker panels is 30 amps and the smallest breakers that can be installed into a 30 amp panel are15 amps. If more info is needed go to the discussion page tab and explain what you are trying to do.
No, because if you switch a 50-amp load on, it will blow a 40-amp circuit breaker if the load exceeds 40 amps, which is likely.
The recommended amperage for a breaker to use with a range is typically 50 amps.
The maximum current rating for the circuit breaker needed for a device that operates at 20 amps is 25 amps.
The recommended range breaker size for a circuit breaker in a residential electrical panel is typically between 15 to 20 amps.
For a 240-volt circuit that requires a 50 amp breaker, the appropriate size of the breaker needed is 50 amps.
As a range is a high current device, the electrical code stipulates that it has to have its own breaker. The breaker protects the wire feeder. An electric range breaker is set to trip at 40 amps. Using a smaller wire that #8 is not allowed as their ratings are below that of the #8 wire. #10 wire rating is 30 amps, #12 wire rating is 20 amps, and #14 wire rating is 15 amps.
A double breaker is a breaker that has 2 switches on it. One of the switches is 20 amps and the other is 30 amps.
In standard construction this would require a 15 amp breaker and 14 gauge copper wire.
It depends on how many amps each TV draws. The continuous load should be 80% of teh breaker or 12 amps. If an average TV draws 2.5 amps that would be 4 TVs. Look for a rating plate on TV and just add the currents up.
KA stands for kilo-amps, or thousands of amps. Thus a 2KA breaker means it will trip when the load exceeds 2,000 amps.
The maximum amperage capacity of a Siemens breaker rated at 200 amps is 200 amps.
To answer this question the voltage of the immersion heater is needed. I = W/E.
