Will 14-2 wire push 15 amps at 80ft?
80 feet of 14 AWG wire has a resistance of about .2 ohms. So at 15 amps the voltage drop across the length of wire is about 3 volts. With 120 volt service, this should be fine. If you up the wire size to 12 AWG, the voltage drop would be 1.9 volts.
How many amps would a 24 watt led light use per hour?
"Amps" is a steady thing. There's no such thing as "Amps per hour".The current through a 24-watt load is[ 24/the voltage across the load ] Amperes.
Is a pool pump motor drawing half the amps listed on its nameplate a problem with the windings?
A pool pump motor which is drawing half the amps listed on its nameplate can indicate a problem with the windings or a lack of incoming current. Pumps will only draw as many amps as are required to operate under the current load.
Why do you register 2 amps on an electrical meter?
Registering 2 amps on an electrical meter could indicate that there are two separate circuits drawing 1 amp each, or it could mean that there is a single circuit with a total load of 2 amps. The meter simply sums up the current flowing through each circuit it is measuring.
How many amps on 3 phase 225 amp panelboard each phase?
In a three-phase 225 amp panelboard, each phase will carry 225 amps. This means that the total current flowing through the panelboard is distributed evenly across the three phases, allowing for a maximum of 225 amps on each phase at a time.
What are the function of multimeter?
They allow the user to test: Volts (AC and DC), Amps, Ohms and basic continuity.
Can a wattmeter that has a current through its current coil and a potential across its voltage indicate zero?
A: Only if the current is very small and the scaling very large. Like trying to measure micro amps on amp meter
The differene between amps and watts?
Amps (amperes) measure current flow in a circuit, showing how much electricity is flowing. Watts measure power, representing the rate at which energy is consumed or produced. In simple terms, amps indicate the amount of electricity flowing, while watts indicate how much work or energy is being used.
How measuring amps?
A; By using a voltmeter across a small shunt resistor
How do you drop amps across a circuit without changing the voltage?
Increase resistance.
What is the current flow if you apply 12v across a 68 ohm resistor?
0.1764 amps
What is the amp rating for fusible link 10awg?
12awg will handle about 20 amps, so 10awg should handle 25-30 amps. Keep in mind that length plays a role in wire size selection. In house wiring, a wire run of 50 ft will work for 15 amps at 14awg, but increase the length to 100ft and you should use 12awg to carry 15 amps correctly.
How to figure amps in an electrical circuit?
To figure out the amps in an electrical circuit, you can use Ohm's Law, which states that Amps Volts / Resistance. Measure the voltage across the circuit and the resistance of the components in the circuit, then divide the voltage by the resistance to calculate the amperage.
What is the soul purpose of a Fluke T5?
The Fluke T5 is voltage continuity and current tester, meaning that its purpose is to test the voltages, ohms and amps of electrical devices used primarily by electricians.

How do you size a transformer based on amperage I have a 1 KVA single phase transformer I was told I can only put 4 amps across the secondary. This transformer is 240 volt primary 120 volt secondary?
On a 1kva you have 1000 watts capacity. To fine the current the formula is I = W/E. The secondary side of the transformer has the capacity of 1000/120 = 8.3 amps. In your question you do not put the amps across the secondary you draw amps from it. Using the transformer to its maximum, without overloading it, the primary will be 4.16 amps at 240 volts and the secondary will be 8.33 at 120 volts. <<>> voltage times amps equals wattage
