How many kw does it take to make 100 amps?
If the 100 amps is powered by 10 volts, you have 1 kw, or 1000 watts. watts = volts X current The 'k' simply means kilo, or thousand.
How do you solve for the size of wire when the given is kva?
The V stands for volts and A is amps. If for example you have a 12kVA device and are running off a voltage of 120 volts then Amps = 12000/120 = 100. You then use the calculated amps in a wire size table to get the correct size.
How do you convert 100 meg ohms to micro amps?
Ohms is a unit of resistance. Amps is a measure of current. They are related by Ohm's Law where Voltage = Current x Resistance. In your example Resistance = 100 x 10 to the 6th power So V in Micro volts over 100 would yield current expressed as micro amps. So if you had 100 volts you would have 1 micro amp.
How di you convert kw to amps for a one phase system?
A kw (kilowatt) is 1000 amps x volts. If you assume your one phase system has 120 volts, then divide by 120. Cheap, but close enough for most work, assume 100 volts, then each amp is a tenth of a kilowatt.
What is the maximum wattage for 5 amp fuse?
The 5 amp fuse has many wattages that it can protect. It depends on the voltage of the circuit that the fuse is protecting. Use the following formula, Watts = Volts x Amps. For example 120 volts x 5 amps = 600 watts, 240 volts x 5 amps = 1200 watts, 480 volts x 5 amps = 2400 watts and 600 volts x 5 amps = 3000 watts.
