An average central air conditioning unit typically draws between 15 to 50 amps, depending on the size and efficiency of the unit. It's important to consult the manufacturer's specifications or an electrician to determine the exact amp draw for a specific AC unit.

How many amps does a 2 ton 14 SEER Trane AC draw at startup and running?

The answer you are looking for is on the condensing unit tag. It`s listed as FLA or (full load amps) or RLA (running load amps). Start up amps are appx 5 to 6 times this # but this current is only drawn very briefly. Be sure to add both the compressor and fan motor amperage to get total current draw of the unit. The control power is supplied by the indoor unit so that is not a factor.

How many watts does 115 volts equal to an AC unit rated at 9.2 amps?

Watts = Volts x Amps x Power factor For an AC Unit I am guessing that your PF = .75 so we have 115 x 9.2 x .75 = 793.5 Watts.

Why would plugging in an Air Conditioning unit in a wall receptacle blow a fuse?

The fuse (or circuit breaker) rating has been exceeded. I'm assuming you do NOT have the AC unit connected to a dedicated circuit. Lets say you have a 15 amp circuit breaker and the AC unit draws 12 amps and other items on the same circuit draw an additional 5 amps. The total amp draw of 17 amps exceeds the circuit design capacity; so the breaker trips to prevent an electrical fire. If you have old style fuses, NEVER EVER replace a fuse with a higher rated one! I'm sure you'd have problems with your homeowners insurance paying out when your house burns down. Have an electrician run a new dedicated circuit for the AC unit and you should be good to go.

Can you use a 90 amp breaker to run your 20 amp ac?

It is possible but dangerous and illegal. The reason for having circuit breakers is to open the circuit when there is an over current fault condition. Your AC unit may be designed to draw 20 amps but if something goes wrong within the unit and it starts to draw more current, the breaker won't trip until serious damage has been done. If there is only 20 amp wire ran to the AC unit and there is a short circuit or some other similar fault, the wire will likely melt or catch on fire before the breaker trips. It may be safe if you have wire rated for 90 amps ran to your AC disconnect and have 20 amp fuses installed in the disconnect.
