6240 watts if it's on a 240 volt circuit. A better answer is to just learn that amps X volts = watts.

How many amps is 26 awg wire rated for?

Copper wire current ratings assume 10 amps per mm2 for currents up to a few amps. 26 AWG wire has a cross sectional area of 0.13 mm2 so this logic says 1.3 amps.

What appliances use 220 volts?

Yes it will but there will be a reduction of wattage output. The following as an example as to why this reduction occurs. Lets say that your range is rated at 6000 watts at 220 volts. The resistance is calculated to be R = E (squared)/W = 8 ohms. The current would be I = E/R, 220/8 = 27.5 amps. If the 220 volt range is connected to a 208 volt supply the following condition happens. I = E/R, 208/8 = 26 amps. To check this connection's wattage W = A x V, 26 x 208 = 5408 watts. Cooking food is the oven will take a little bit longer to cook.


Can you use a 100 watt CFL in a fixture that says the bulb should not exceed 25 incandescent watts?

Probably, as the CFL consumption is 26 watts. Why not try a 60 watt CFL first, that would be much lower consumption.


How much current does it take to trip a 30 amp automotive circuit breaker?

In a typical US automobile, a 30 amp fuse will sustain a constant load of 360 watts. Fuses and circuit breakers perform on an "I squared t" rule. For example, a 30 amp fuse will not blow on 31 amps for a very long time. A 20 amp breaker can take anywhere from 10 minutes to two hours to trip on 25 amps. We simply dumb it down so that laymen and technicians need not make mistakes. Power on seven 100 watt light bulbs simultaneously. That means a circuit suddenly provides 50 amps. 50 amps does not trip a 15 amp or 20 amp breaker, again, due to the "I squared t" rule. A 50 amps load only exists for tens of milliseconds. Not long enough. A 30 amp continuous appliance will not trip a 30 amp breaker. But a safety margin means limiting 30 amp appliances to 26 amps or less. Meanwhile, an 18 gauge lamp cord wire typically rated for 10 amps will actually conduct up to 50 amps continuously. Again, that wire is oversized for other safety reasons. And to keep it simple. These concepts apply to fuses vehicles and structures.

How many watts in 26kw?

To find watts in kilowatts multiply kilowatts by 1000. In this case, 26 x 1000 = 26, 000 watts.

How many amps in 6 kw?

UK Mains is 230V therefore 6 KW is 6000/230 = 26 Amps. 3 phase is slightly different....... 6000/400V = 15 Amps/root 3 = 8.67 Amps per phase.

What is meant by 26 amp hour batteries and how can we calculate the backup time of battery from this?

If you know how many amps your load draws then divide this into 26 and your answer will be the number of hours (approximately) you can sustain the load.
