Each baseboard heater will draw a little over 4 amps at 120 volts or 2 Amps at 240 volts. The total number of baseboards on a circuit will draw the sum of these amps. Keep the load under 80% of the amperage rating of the breaker.

What size wire should be used from main panel to 50 watt subpanel?
#6 wire is needed. If placing the subpanel in a garage at a good distance, it is recommended to also install a seperate ground rod .
How many amps is needed to run a 1450 watt coffee maker?
A 1450 watt coffee maker will use around 13 amps at 110 volts.
What amp breaker do you need for a 325 watt heater 120 VAC?
Electrical breakers are sized by the conductor that is connected to it. The conductor is sized by the current that is drawn by the circuit. The formula for amperage is I = W/E. Amps + Watts/Volts. 325/120 = 2.7 amps. A #14 copper conductor is rated at 15 amps. This is the minimum size wiring that is used for house circuits loads. The breaker for this size wiring will be a 15 amp breaker.
What size hot wire do you need for a 1900 watt amp?
A 12 gauge wire can support a load of approximately 2200 watts.
A 1.2 k ohms resistor is placed across an 18-V source The minimum acceptable power rating for the resistor is?
1/2 watt (In theory you could use a "0.27 Watt" resistor, however there would be no safety factory and there is no standard value resistor that size.)
What size cable required for3 phase 128 watt?
To answer this question a voltage is needed.
What size of solar panels is needed to charge a 12v 150ah battery with hours sunlight 10?
200 Watt Panel
If you have 1200 watt generator how much will voltage drop with 100ft extension cord?
To answer this question more information is needed. The wire size of the extention cord is needed.
What size breaker is needed for a 1100 watt microwave?
A minimum of 15-amp breaker is "needed", but a 20-amp is often required by electrical code for that situation.
What size wire needed to power 100 watt bulb?
In a floor lamp or table lamp a #16 wire is what you need.
What wire size needed for 120 volt 3000 watt load?
AWG # 10 wire on 30 amp circuit.
What is the formula of 2 phase power?
The formula which are needed for making of a single phase transformeri.e o/p voltage,watt,current,turn,core size,coil number,bobin size etc
How many 75 watt fluorescent bulbs are needed to give as much light as a 75 watt incandescent bulb?
A 15-watt fluorescent should produce about as much light as a 75-watt incandescent.
What size breaker should you use if you have a 1500 and a 1000 watt heater run together?
The size of the breakers depends on the voltage. According to the NFPA electrical standard (USA), if the two heaters you describe are "120 volt plug-in" then they are not allowed on the same circuit. Two circuits are needed. The largest general use circuit allowed for 120 volt receptacles is 20 amps and this will not handle your two appliances. An exception may exist if they are hard wired to a dedicated circuit, or if they are 240 volt.
What amp fuse do you use for a 100 watt bulb?
Fuses or breakers are used to protect the conductor to the load. A #14 wire conductor is rated for 15 amps. Most home circuitry is done with #14 wire. The minimum size breaker in an electrical panel is 15 amp so it looks like a 15 amp fuse or breaker can be used for a 100 watt light bulb.
What size circuit breaker is needed for a 300 watt bulb?
A 15 amp circuit breaker will handle this situation very well. The smallest home breaker is rated at 15 amp.
What minimum fuse rating is needed for a 12volt curcuit with a 36 watt bulb?
36 watt / 12 volt = 3 amp
