The sizing of wire is calculated by the amount of current the circuit draws. To find the amperage when the wattage is known use the following formula, Amps = Watts/Volts. 6500/240 = 27 amps.

A #10 AWG copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less, when supplying 27 amps at 240 volts for a 100 foot distance.

How much current at 240 volts passes through a wire with a resistance of 100 ohms?

current = voltage/resistanceAssuming the 240 volts is across the 100 ohm wire, 2.4 amperespower = current * voltageResulting in the wire dissipating 576 watts... One hot wire!


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.


What wire size is used for 100 watt 12 volt lamp?

Volts * Amps = Watts 12 V * ?Amps = 100 Watts OR ? Amps =100W/12V OR 8.33 Amps = 100W/12V Use a 10Amp fuse inline and you can get by with 16Ga wire.


An alternator provides 20 A of a peak current at 100 volts peak AC to a resistive electric heater How much heating power is delivered to the load?

Watts = Amps * Volts Watts = 20 amps * 100 Volts Watts = 2000 2,000 Watts or 2k Watts

Is there 1200 watts in 12 volts?

If the 12V source can deliver 100 Ampere, then yes. If it can't, then no. (remember watts / volts = amps)


Watts a 100 amp panel will run?

The formula you are looking for is Watts = Amps x Volts.


How many volts does a 12 volt 100 amp alternator produce?

This will still only produce 12 volts. It will produce 1200 watts. watts is the result of Volts times Amps.


How many ac amps is a 1500 watts?

Watts are amps x volts, so w/o the volts the question can't be answered. At 100 volts it'd be 15 amps.


How many volts is 2 amps?

While Amps and Volts are both units of electrity, they are quite independant. Total electrical energy is measured in "watts". Amps * Volts = Watts. You can get 100 Watts with 10 Volts @ 10 Amps. You can get 100 Watts with 100 Volts @ 1 Amp. You can get 100 Watts with 1,000 Volts at 0.1 Amp. It's like asking, "How do you get water flow of 20 gallons per minute?" You COULD have a 3 ft diameter pipe with very low pressure, or you COULD have a 1/2 inch pipe with very HIGH pressure. Both could give you the desired 20 gallons per minute.


How many kilowatts does it take to run 100 amp home?

How do you convert 1.5 volts AC to 100 watts AC?

P = V x A, POWER (watts) = VOLTS times AMPS But 1.5V AC is not a normal output
