14 gauge will handle it with a 15 amp breaker. If you use 12 gauge use a 20 amp breaker.
The smallest size breaker is a 15 amp and with a #14 wire which has a capacity for 15 amps and a 120 volt source, this combination will give you the capacity up to 1800 watts. W = A x V, 120 x 15 = 1800.
250 watts, is the maximum, according to the info you gave me.
Yes a ballast uses amperage. That is the number beside the letter A on the ballasts nameplate. Depending on the size of the lamp or lamps will govern the size of the amperage that the ballast will draw.
Wire size is based on the amperage the device draws. The wattage of the unit has to be included in the equation. Amps = Watts/Volts. Most homes in North America today are roughed in with a two conductor #10 cable. This size wire will allow a 30 amps. The electrical code allows this conductor to be only loaded up to 80% capacity so useful amperage is 30 x 80% = 24 amps. Watts = Amps x volts = 24 x 240 = 5760 watts. If your dryer's wattage is no larger that this a #10 conductor will be fine. If it is higher go to the next size wire which is a #8 rated at 40 amps. Same de rate has to be applied.
To answer this question a voltage needs to be stated. The formula needed to find the amperage is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Voltage. Once the amperage is found, the proper size conductor to handle that current can be established. Without knowing the amperage on 400 watts a good guess would be a #14 wire. This wire size is good up to 1440 watts at 120 volts.
At 120 volts a 15 amp breaker can be loaded to 1800 watts before it will trip. If it is a continuous load then the electrical code states that it is only allowed to be loaded to 80%. This will be 1800 x .8 = 1440 watts. If the voltage is not 120 volts use the following equation Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps being the breaker size that is to be used.
Depending on size of Fridge. But AVERAGE is 12 volts for fridge, circuit necessity 15 amps 15 amps X 120 Volts=1800 watts minimum...I'm LEARNING myself

audionic mini size laptop speakers ( USB based) 300 watts best output result. no external power required.
size depends on the watts..-Shocker
12 watts
The total load applied to an extension cord is governed by the wire size of the cord. As the extension cord is usually plugged into a wall receptacle. The breaker protecting the receptacle is rated at 15 amps. The total wattage is limited to 15 x 120 volts = 1800 watts. Check the nameplate on the appliances to see what the wattage draw totals. This will give you the answer, any amount that adds up to the total of 1800 watts.
Tables and floor lamps are usually sold separately. Depending on the size of the table, it is very difficult to equip it with floor lamps in order to meet the minds of the buyer.
Depends on the size of the TV. Between 50 to 150 watts is average.
They have the same physical dimensions but not the same size. 1 horsepower = 746 watts .

Sir, i will not go by watts because it can take many hundreds of watts per outlet but it also depend on the size of the wire in the outlet the bigger the number the more watts.
