Can you run a 3200 watt oven on a 20 amp breaker?
a 220 volt, 3200 watt oven will draw under 15 amps, so yes a 2o amp breaker will work.
What size breaker is used for a 220 volt for a stove?
50 amp with AWG # 6 wire is normal. Read the instructions that came with the stove to make sure.
What amp breaker for a 220 volt 8000 watt sauna?
A sauna heating element is a resistive load. The equation that you are looking for is Amps = Watts/Volts = 8000/220 = 36 amps. A #8 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 55 amps. This will be fed with 40 amp two pole breaker.
What size wire do you use to install a 40 amp breaker for a 2amp pool pump?
I think you mean 2 HP pump. I am assuming a 220 To 240 volt supply and that should equate to about a 12 amp current. All my pumps use only a 30 amp breaker and 10 AWG wire.
How can you determine if you have 110 or 220 volts?
Most residential service in USA has both. In the USA 110 to 120 volts is a given and it would be very unusual not to have 220 to 240 volts. It can be easily tested at main panel with a volt meter. Or as an alternative call your power company.

How do I know if I have a 30 amp breaker at my house to plug a trailer into?
If it is a 30 amp breaker then it is a 240 volt outlet.
Does a double 30 amp breaker mean you have 60 amps for a 220 outlet?
No, a double 30 amp breaker means you have a total of 30 amps available for each leg of the 220 volt outlet. So, in total, you have 60 amps available for the outlet (30 amps on each leg).
What size breaker is used for a 220 volt for a stove?
50 amp with AWG # 6 wire is normal. Read the instructions that came with the stove to make sure.
Can you hook up a 4800 watt construction heater to a 40 amp stove outlet?
If you are using typical residential voltages ( 120v/240v) a 40 amp breaker is plenty big enough. You could even use a twenty amp breaker.
Can a 3 phase 220 volt machine that usually plugs into a line with a twenty amp breaker can a thirty amp breaker be used instead?
It is not recommended to replace a 20 amp breaker with a 30 amp breaker for a 220 volt machine. The breaker size needs to be compatible with the current draw of the machine to ensure safe operation and prevent electrical hazards. Using a larger breaker than recommended could lead to overheating and potentially damage the machine or cause a fire hazard.
Can you use a 60 amp breaker for a airconditioner with heat instead of two thirty amp breakers?
No. If your AC is currently running on a 30 amp 2 pole breaker, then it is a 220 volt unit. You cannot substitute one 60 amp single pole breaker as you'll only be supplying 110 volts and the AC unit won't work. In fact you could damage it.
How many volts can you draw off of a 15amp breaker?
On a 15 amp breaker, you can draw up to 120 volts in a standard residential circuit. The voltage remains constant at 120 volts, but the amperage capacity is what is limited by the 15 amp breaker.
What amp breaker for a 220 volt 8000 watt sauna?
A sauna heating element is a resistive load. The equation that you are looking for is Amps = Watts/Volts = 8000/220 = 36 amps. A #8 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 55 amps. This will be fed with 40 amp two pole breaker.

How do I wire a single phase 120 amp 230 volt flux and mig welder to a 200 amp panel?
To wire a single-phase 230-volt welder to a 200 amp panel, you will need a dedicated double-pole 40 amp breaker in the panel. Run appropriately sized wires (likely 8 AWG copper) from the breaker to the welding machine, following all local electrical codes and regulations. Make sure to install the necessary grounding and wiring connections as outlined in the welder's manual.
