If the transformer uses 5 watts per hour you need to know what you are paying per 1000 watts from your power company. If you pay lets say $3.00 for 1000 watts then when your transformer burns 1000 watts it cost you $3.00 your cost will be $3.00 for 200 hours run time.

Is it dangerous to run an appliance with more watts than the transformer?

A transformer has a rating that is usually expressed in KVA. This is approximately a wattage rating. It is not dangerous but it can be the cause of some concern. An appliance has a set current that is draws. This current times the voltage is the appliance's wattage. The same goes for the transformer. It only has a certain capacity to supply a specific current that is governed by its KVA (watts). Driving the transformer beyond its rated capacity tends to heat the transformer beyond its working temperature. If left in this over current draw the transformer's windings insulation will break down and the windings will short circuit. This is usually the end of a working transformer. So short answer, more watts (amps) from appliance equals burned out transformer.


How much will it cost to run a 185 watts per day?

To calculate the cost of running a device that consumes 185 watts per day, you need to know the cost of electricity per kilowatt-hour. Assuming an average cost of $0.12 per kWh, running a 185-watt device for 24 hours a day would cost about $0.50 per day (185 watts / 1000 * 24 hours * $0.12).


How much does it cost to run a 75 watt CFL bulb?

the rule is.... run 100 watts 24/7 for 100.00/year. Your cfl will cost apx.75/year. However, while your cfl only uses 75 watts it is equivalent to apx 350 watts and produces a broad variety of colors in the spectrum making it great for growing!

What does it cost to run a 5.8 amp motor at 120 volts?

Use the following formula to find the watts used. W = Amps x Volts. Divide that number by 1000. This will give you kWs. Determine how long the motor is to run and multiply this amount by the kilowatts you calculated. This will give you kW/hours. On your utility bill it will be stated how much you pay for a kW/h. Multiply that by your answer and you can estimate how much it costs you to operate the motor.


Can a 5.8 ampere 110V run on a step up step down 300 W transformer?

No because the load is 638 VA which is too much for the transformer.


Can you run a 1500w power tool on a 3kvA 240W to 110W step down transformer?

I think you mean a 240 V to 110 V (volts, not watts) transformer! Providing your power tool is rated at 110 V, the answer is yes, because its power rating of 1500 W is well within the capacity of a 3-kV.A transformer.


What can a 14000 watt generator run?

Anything, as long as the sum of what you are running does not exceed 14000 watts.
