Best Answer

This is not the answer to this question. It depends on your power factor! Power factor is the measurement of the percentage of "clean" electricity you get from your electric company. Low power factors can be corrected by installing a unit like "powermax3000". Most U.S. pf's are in the .75 to .92 range. In the case of a .75 pf, only 75% of your electric is being used effectively.
