Is there a converter that will turn car DC to use on microwave oven?

Yep. It is called an inverter to convert 12 volts to 110 volts AC. Get one that will supply the amp needed for the microwave.


How many amps are needed for a microwave?

Most household microwaves require around 10-12 amps to operate efficiently. It's recommended to use a dedicated circuit with a 15-20 amp breaker to ensure safe and proper functioning of the microwave.


What are the specifications for a microwave that operates at 220 volts?

A microwave that operates at 220 volts typically has a power rating of around 1000-1200 watts and requires a power outlet with a voltage of 220 volts. It may also have a frequency of 50 Hz. Make sure to check the specific specifications of the microwave model you are interested in to ensure compatibility with your electrical system.


What voltage is used by a microwave?

In North America the common voltage for microwave ovens is 120 volts. However, what you may really want to know is how many watts does it draw? (One doesn't "draw volts" - the voltage is fixed by the source of electricity: 110 - 120 volts from the wall recepticle in your house; 1 1/2 volts for a AA battery, etc.) However, appliances do "draw" wattage - that depends upon the appliance and how efficiently it operates. (watts = volts x amps (current). Most microwave ovens are about 50% efficient, so an 800 watt (output) microwave oven draws about 1600 watts of electricity.


What is the current in a 1000 watt microwave?

To calculate the current in a 1000 watt microwave, you would need to know the voltage it operates on. Using the formula Power = Voltage x Current, you can rearrange it to find Current = Power / Voltage. For example, if the microwave operates on 120 volts, the current would be approximately 8.33 amps (1000 watts / 120 volts = 8.33 amps).


How many amps does a small microwave use?

13 amps should be a dedicated outlet since one outlet has a maximum capacity of 15 amps <<>> If the supply voltage is 120 volts then the amperage is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts = 1450/120 = 12.08 amps.


Are all ovens 110 volts when you buy them?

In Europe you cannot bye an oven using 110 volts. The word is not only the USA. Actually, most US electric ranges use 220 volts. Microwave ovens and toaster ovens are 110.
