Pwer is volts times amperes. 120 volts times 10 amperes = 1.2 KW
The equation you are looking for is Amps = Watts/Volts. To change kW to watts, multiply kW x 1000.
The short answer is no. The long answer is no, not if you are using standard 100-120 volt or 220-240volts found in most (all?) countries The following is a simplified best case scenario, which incorrectly assumes a power factor of 1. Power = Volts * Amps Watts = Volts * AMPS (Actually VA = Volts * Amps, but VA=Watts in best case scenario) but 10kw > 240 * 32. David
45-50 amps. But your overcurrent protection and wire must be designed for 125% of load so the max overcurrent protection is 55 amps or 60
20.833 amps at 240volts equals 5000 watts. Wattage is volts times amps.
To calculate the amperage for a 10kW heater on a 3-phase 220V system, use the formula: Amps = (kW x 1000) / (√3 x Volts). So, Amps = (10 x 1000) / (√3 x 220) = 26.18 amps per phase. Therefore, the total current drawn by the heater is 26.18 amps per phase multiplied by 3, which equals approximately 78.54 amps.

The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. As you can see a voltage must be stated to answer this question. 10kW = 10000 watts.

Therefore, the total current drawn by the heater is 26.18 amps per phase multiplied by 3, which equals approximately 78.54 amps.
To find the amperage, use the formula: Power (W) = Voltage (V) x Current (A). Rearranging the formula to solve for current gives: Current (A) = Power (W) / Voltage (V). So, with 10kW at 220V, the current drawn would be 45.45A.
The formula for watts is W = I x E. Watts = Amps x Volts.
There are zero watts in 240 volts. To determine watts, an amperage or a resistance must be supplied. W = Amps x Volts, W = Amps (squared) x Resistance (in Ohms), or W = Voltage (squared)/Resistance.
To calculate the phase current of a 10kW 3-phase motor, you can divide the total power (10kW) by the square root of 3 (approx. 1.732) and then divide that result by the line-to-line voltage. The formula is: Phase Current (Amps) = Power (W) / (√3 x Line-to-Line Voltage (V)).
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.On heating elements of higher wattage 240 volts is usually the working voltage. 10000/240 = 41.6 amps. A #8 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 45 amps. Code states that the conductor can only be loaded to 80% so 45 x .8 = 36 amps. A #6 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 65 amps. 65 x .8 = 52 amps. No. Power = Voltage X Current.....so a 10,000 watt heat strip will draw 10,000 watts / 120 volts = 83 ampsNot so fast.Actually, it depends on the manufacturers guidelines. My 10KW heat strip, in my hvac system, is rated ( by the manufacturer ) at 41.7 amps.8 AWG wire is rated at 40 amps. 6 AWG wire at 50 amps.I used 6 AWG wire and a 50 amp breaker. I passed the electrical inspection.
10kW = 10,000 watts
