If you have 100 amps on the main switch and there is two swiches with a pin is this not then 200 amps?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz power supply service. No it is still 100 amps. The two switches are 100 amps each but they protect the two separate legs, L1 and L2. If this is a main service the electrical code states that if either leg L1 or L2 trips both legs feeding the panel will shut the power to the panel completely off. If this is a separate load off of the mail panel which it sounds like it might be, because of the pin between the two breakers, the same rule still applies. L1 to neutral is 120 volts, L2 to neutral is 120 volts and L1 to L2 is 240 volts.

What size feeder wire for 100 amps?
Service wire for 100 amps requires AWG #3 copper.
How many amps does it takes to light up a led 100 watt?
You need the volts times the amps to equal 100 Watts. On 12 v that is 8.33 amps, or on 200 v is it 0.5 amps.
Can 100 vdc 1 Amp be turned into 25 vdc 10 amps?
No, because 100 v at 1 amp is a supply of 100 watts of power. It could be turned into a 25 v supply using a switch-mode voltage converter, but the available power would still be theoretically no more than 100 w, which is 4 amps at 25 v. In practice it would be slightly less.
How many amps does a 100 amp service supply?
A 100 amp service will supply your electrical current needs UP TO 100 amps.When doing load calculations on a 100 amp panel it can only be loaded up to 80 amps.
Can you switch out your 100 amp breaker to a 200 amp one for a service upgrade if your supply wires are already 2-0 copper that is can I keep my existing panel since I have all the space I need?
I doubt if you can fit a 200 amp breaker into a 100 amp panel and it is illegal as the bus bars in a 100 amp panel are rated at 100 not 200 amps. The panel must be of the same capacity in amps as the main breaker that is installed in it. You can go smaller but not larger. The other problem is that a 200 amp service required three ought (000) wire. 000 copper wire with an insulation factor 90 degrees C is rated at 210 amps. Two ought (00) copper wire with an insulation factor of 60C is rated at 145 amps, 75C is rated at 175 amps and 90C is rated at 185 amps. Buy a complete house package that has the main breaker and all of the appliance breakers plus a few breakers for 15 amp circuits, all for one price that is cheaper that buying individual pieces.
How many amps come into a home from the main?
max. 100 amps then fuse blows.
What is involved in the hosting of a large LAN party expecting 100 to 200 attendees and what resources are necessary?
you will need large numbers of swiches and CAT5 cable... an lots of time Connect the swiches to each other in a token ring fasion (edit this to make sure you can read it correctly) switch >>>>> switch >>>> switch | | |<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<| or if you are fortunate enough, use the special "uplink" caling system by the mfg. you can get monserous speed that way. anyway...once done w/that, grab a couple of PC's and put them on furthest swiches and then try to play the game in mp mode... if the n/w is too slow, you will need to upgrade your equipment... (be sure to buy from a local retailer if you can so you can swap out quickly) once done, load up your machines and let her rip!

How many how many amps in 100 watts?
A three wire home distribution service rated at 100 amps has a wattage capacity of;From L1 to L2 at 240 volts x 100 amps = 24000 watts or 24 kilowatts. From L1 to neutral at 120 volts x 100 amps = 12000 watts or 12 kilowatts. From L2 to neutral at 120 volts x 100 amps = 12000 watts or 12 kilowatts.
How many ampere in 240 volt with 100 watts bulb?
Current (amps) = power (watts) / voltage = 100/240 = 0.42 amps
1400watts equals how many amps?
Watts=Volts times Amps So without knowing the voltage the amps can be anything. At 100 Volts it'd be 14 Amps.
Can work wire for 100 amps use for 60 amps circuit?
If you have 100 amp wire, you can use it for a 60 amp circuit, or for any circuit of 100 amps or less. But if you have a 60 amp circuit, 60 amp wire is thinner and cheaper than 100 amp wire.
