What amperage will a range with a rating of 12.9 kw draw?

This depends on what voltage the range is rated for and if it is single phase or three phase. At 220 volts single phase it is about 60 amps, 240 v single phase , 53 amps and at 480 v three phase about 15 amps.


What will happen if you use phase to phase voltage for a single phase device?

Phase to phase, two wire is classed as single phase. If the voltage from the phase to phase match the device's operating voltage, then connecting the device will allow it to operate.


What is typical single phase voltage in Canada?

The standard nominal voltage in Canada for a single-phase residential supply is 240/120-V split-phase supply.


How many watts is 4.75 amp refrigerator starting watts?

To convert amperage to watts, you need to know the voltage, power factor, and the number of phases that you are working with. For a residential refrigerator this is single phase, an industrial refrigerator could be three phase.


When you have 56KVA available in 3 phase supply how much is your available current in 3 phase and how much in 1 phase?

In three phase: I = (three phase VA) / (sqrt(3) x (phase to phase voltage)) for single phase: I = (single phase VA) / ((phase to neutral voltage)) keep in mine three phase VA = 3 x (single phase VA), and phase to phase voltage = 1.732 x (phase to neutral voltage) Therefore the single phase and three phase currents are the same (ie, the three phase currents are the same in all three phases, or balanced). But don't get available current and available power confused (KVA is not the same as KW).

What is the rating of circuit breaker needed for a 500kva load?

To answer this question a voltage needs to be stated and whether the load is three phase or single phase. Without the voltage the amperage can not be calculated. For single phase, Amps = kva x 1000/voltage, for three phase, Amps = kva x 1000/1.73 x voltage.

What size wire 100 kva transformer?

Wire sizing of a feed conductor is based on the amperage that a device draws. To calculate amperage from KVA a voltage of the supply has to be stated. Without this voltage and whether the transformer is single or three phase an answer can not be given.


What is the Single phase voltage in India?

The single phase voltage in India is 230v when we check with the phase and the nutral single line


What is the amps for 6000 watts 415 volts 3 phase heater?

There are zero amps in a 6kW 3 phase heater. Amperage is the result of dividing the Watts by the Voltage. A = W/E. Without stating the voltage the heater operates on the amperage can not be calculated.

What is 3 phase voltage in Germany?

Three-phase voltage in Germany is 400V, single-phase voltage is 230V.


How do you size a phase converter to run a 3 phase welder?

From the nameplate on the welder you find the amperage that the welder draws at the three phase voltage that you are going to use. This amperage is used to size the phase converter. This amperage is also used to size the breaker that will feed the phase converter and wire size for the installation.


What is the standard voltage and amperage in Toronto Canada?

The standard home voltage connection is single phase 120/240 volts. The amperage is what ever the service size requires. For new homes it is usually 200 amps. For business voltages it usually is three phase 120/208, amperage demand governed by equipment. For new industrial and commercial buildings the voltages are three phase 347/600 volts, amperage demand governed by equipment. For old industrial and commercial buildings the voltages are three phase 277/480 volts, amperage demand governed by equipment. The three phase 277/480 systems are being phased out for newer 347/600 systems.
