The only way to determine the cable wire size needed for a 1000 watt air conditioner is to find the load size. To get the load size you will need to use the formula Amps = Watts or Volts. With that being said, you will need a number 14 copper wire.

What size of wire for 10000 watts?
Cable sizing is based on load amperage. The formula you need to use is Amps = Watts/Volts. Amps = 1000/220 = 4.55 amps. A #14 copper wire with a insulation factor of 60, 75 and 90 degrees C is rated at 15, 15 and 15 amps respectively.
How do you calculate the cable size for a run of 30 meters?
to calculate the cable size of a run of 30 meters long you first will have to know the current of the appliance use the voltage drop formula V d = (mVxIxL)/1000 once the voltage drop is less than 2.5% of the nominal voltage, the cable should be upsize.
How much electric baseboard heat is needed for a house?
You can get this information the same place you get the heaters. You will need to give them information on the size and dimensions for your home.
How many baseboard heaters can you put on a 2 pole 15 amp breaker?
The question depends entirely on the size of the heaters and the size of the wire used.Select your breaker size and wire gauge according to the wattage. To determine your amperage, divide your power in watts by your voltage. If the voltage is 100 volts and your wattage is 1000 watts, then the amperage draw = 1000 Watts / 100 volts = 10 ampsIf you intend to control a number of heaters, a relay may also be used. The thermostat turns on the relay, the relay controls the heaters. Thermostats are rated for current and voltage. Make sure you are also using a thermostat big enough for your circuit.
How many watts an lg LCD television use?
Depends on the size of the TV. Between 50 to 150 watts is average.
How loud is 1000 watts in a sound system?
1000 watts is not twice as loud as 500 watts, that is the first myth to break. But 1000 watts will sound superior because of something called headroom. The best way to think of it is in relation to room size. 1000 watts will not rock Glastonbury but it will do serious damage in a pub or medium to large hall.
What size capacitor you need for a 1000 watts amplifier?
It takes 1 farad for every 1000 watts so u need 2 farads.
How much energy is used by a streetlight per hour?
Yes, that's the question. A 1000 Watt light uses... 1000 Watts. A 500 Watt light uses, you guessed it... 500 watts. It depends on the size of the bulb. ACTUALLY... Watts are a measure of power, Joules are the measure of energy - you can simply convert watts/hour or watts/second to joules but to say that a 1000 Watt light bulb uses 1000 watts is a ridiculous thing to say =D watts are Wh-1 or Ws-1
What size of cable is needed for 1000 amps?
A parallel run of 750 MCM AWG conductors will handle 1000 amps. if we want 1000amps to flow, 250sqmm cable is enough.
What size amplifier will power 3 JL audio 8w7's?
1000 watts rms should be plenty
What size of wire for 10000 watts?

How many kilowatts does it take to run a TV?
Depending on the size of the TV, somewhere between 0.3 and 0.7 KW. The nameplate of the TV usually lists the watts, divide watts by 1000 to get KW.
How do you calculate the size of cable for 1000kw generator?
Without knowing the nominal voltage, you cannot determine the load current and, therefore, cannot determine the cable size. <<>> The sizing of cables or conductors is based on the amperage that the conductor can safely carry. The formula for amperage is I = W/E. Amps = 5000/Volts. With out a voltage stated an answer to this question can not be answered. When you calculate the amperage, re-ask your question for a conductor size for a given amperage.
What will be the recommended size cable size for 400 KVA transformer?
3r x 300sq.mm Al. ar UG cable <<>> Wiring is sized by the amperage that is used by the load. The formula for amps is I = W/E. Amps = Watts (or VA)/Volts. As you can see an answer can not be given unless a voltage is stated. The lower the primary voltage the larger the amperage will be and likewise the larger the wire size will be.
What size cable is needed for 7.2KW oven?
To answer this question a voltage needs to be stated. Wire sizing is based on amperage that the wire can safely conduct. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
How do you calculate the cable size for a run of 30 meters?
to calculate the cable size of a run of 30 meters long you first will have to know the current of the appliance use the voltage drop formula V d = (mVxIxL)/1000 once the voltage drop is less than 2.5% of the nominal voltage, the cable should be upsize.
What is the type and size of cable gland or 2 core cable?
To answer this question the size of the cable or the amperage of the load is needed to calculate the correct wire size and connectors to fit the cable.
