How much amperage a hair dryer draw?

A typical hair dryer draws around 10-15 amps when operating at its highest setting. It is important to check the specific amperage rating of the hair dryer you are using to ensure it is compatible with the electrical circuit you are using.


What is the power of a 1200 watt hair dryer in kilowatts?

A 1200 watt resistive load hair dryer is equivalent to 1.2 kw (kilowatts).


Why is one 1875 watt hair dryer less powerful than another 1875 watt hair dryer?

Dryers have power ratings given to them by approval agencies such as Underwriter's Laboratory. This rating is primarily given so that a user can match the power requirement of an appliance with the power rating of the electrical service to which it is connected. For example, a 20 amp circuit breaker is capable of supplying about 2,400 watts of continuous power without tripping a breaker. The intent is that if you have a 20 amp circuit, you can look at the approval agency power rating of all of the appliances you wish to connect to that circuit and, if they total less than rating of the circuit breaker, they won't trip the breaker. The only power requirement limitation a hair dryer manufacturer must adhere to is that the actual electrical power used by the dryer is less than the rated power. The actual power usage of a number of dryers that we tested, all of which have been rated by UL as 1,875 wats used between 900 and 1,300 watts. Another factor is how fast the hair dryer blows air. The more mass of air blown across the coils of the heater in a hair dryer per unit time for the same amount of electrical power applied to said heater coils, the cooler the air coming out of the nozzle. In other words, the longer the air is in contact with the heater coils the hotter it gets. If it passes over the heater coils very quickly, it doesn't have time to get as hot.


What did the first hair dryer look like?

The first hair dryer was a large, heavy and bulky contraption that resembled a vacuum cleaner with a hose attached. It required a lot of power and took a long time to dry hair.


How long does hair dry with the hair drier?

The amount of time it takes to dry hair with a hair dryer can vary depending on the length and thickness of your hair, as well as the heat and speed setting of the hair dryer. On average, it typically takes about 15-30 minutes to fully dry hair with a hair dryer.

How many watts does a hair-dryer use?

It depends on the model, if the hair dryer is a 1500 watt hair dryer, then it uses 1500 watts on high heat. If the hair dryer is a 2000 watt hair dryer, then it uses 2000 watts on high heat. Hair dryers come in all different size wattage, so it depends on the size wattage of the dryer. Most hair dryers are 1500 watts.
