Answer for countries in Europe and other world areas running a 50 Hz power supply service. 2kw = 2000w. To get the working current divide the 2000 with the rated voltage 220v = 9 Amps.

Add 10-20% for tolerances = 11A.

As you cannot buy 11A fuses easily, get the next size up = 13A fuse

Why does my gas water heater need to be hooked up to a 30 amp breaker with 220 volts?

A gas water heater doesn't use electricity to heat water like an electric water heater does. The electrical connection is typically for powering the ignition system or other electronic components on the gas water heater. The 30 amp breaker with 220 volts is required to safely supply power to these components.


Can you use a 300 watt 220-240 watts halogen bulb on 240 watt mains?

Nobody has "240 watt mains". Perhaps you meant "240-volt mains".You would need to have a lighting or receptacle branch circuit, with over-current protection, in order to use any halogen bulb.However, if you have a 300 W bulb, it should work nicely in a 15-A or 20-A branch circuit.


How is 220v water heater rewired to 110v?

To rewire a 220V water heater to 110V, you would need to change the heating element to one that is compatible with 110V. You would also need to adjust the wiring connections in the water heater to accommodate the lower voltage. It is recommended to consult a qualified electrician to ensure proper and safe rewiring of the water heater.

If a 1500W heater tripped the GFCI outlet and took out a few outlets do you need to rewire those outlets if they're still dead?

Did you reset the GFCI? Any outlet attached to the GFCI's load (output) will not work if the GFCI has no power/is inoperable.The water heater could have a neutral-to-ground short, a type of fault which would be not have shown up on a circuit having no GFCI. That would be a good reason to scrap the water heater if it cannot be fixed! Anyway the best advice is to call in an electrician to run a separate circuit for your water heater.Take the water heater off of that circuit! Nothing else should be on that circuit, and call a electrician to run a separate circuit for your water heater!!! 1500watts divided by 120 volts is 12.5 amps.Always be sure to switch off the breakers at the main panel before you attempt to do any work on any mains power circuit.

Why are mains better to use than batteries?

Mains electricity is typically more reliable and provides a constant power source compared to batteries, which can run out of charge.
