How many watt does a microwaveoven use?

Answer 1

The size of the oven (and the magnetron, which is the device that generates the microwaves) determine the power of the unit. Variations in the operating voltage also have some effect. Smaller compact units operate on a few hundred watts. The "average" oven probably runs at between 500 and 1,000 watts, and this represents the most common power range. Larger commercial units dump from 1,000 watts to 2,000 watts into their cooking chambers, with a few exceeding that by a bit. Some of the larger commercial units actually have two magnetrons in them to provide the extra power.

Answer 2

100-500 watts

--

Domestic Microwave ovens use various power outputs ranging from 600 Watts to 1500 watts. Some industrial units may even produce more enegy.

Answer 3

A typical microwave oven uses around 700 to 1200 watts during cooking. The wattage may vary depending on the size and model of the microwave oven.
