No! The 32 amp rating is slightly more than the circuit that supplies it can handle in continuous power supplied, therefore if you replace it with a socket that has a smaller amperage rating (16) you will have the potential to draw through the new socket more (32) amps than it was rated for and thus have a component failure and possible electrocution hazard. The 16 amp socket will physically work but you and anyone who will use the generator in the future MUST ensure that no more than 16 amps are drawn through the socket . I recommend that a like in kind replacement , 32 amps for 32 amps so the full 32 amp supply can be used safely. my opinion.
depends on your load...
The maximum wattage that a 30 amp breaker can handle is 30 x 230 = 6900 watts. Other variables come into play and this number will decrease depending on the load, duty time, and difference in voltage fluctuation.
#10 wire is used on a 30 amp service.
50 mm or 2 inch will handle the 3/0 wires for a 200 amp service.
6 mm twin and earth
A 30 amp circuit can handle a maximum of 30 amps of current flow continuously without tripping the circuit breaker. It is important not to exceed this amperage to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards.
A 30 amp breaker is designed to handle a maximum continuous load of 30 amps, while a 40 amp breaker can handle a maximum continuous load of 40 amps. The 40 amp breaker allows for more current to flow through before tripping, making it suitable for higher power requirements compared to the 30 amp breaker. Always consult with a qualified electrician before adjusting or replacing circuit breakers to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes.
30X240=7200
My electrician says no, has to be some rewiring.
See discuss question below.
Handle a "What"?
10 amp... in socket # 20
2 Amp
No. A 120 volt 15 amp service will handle a maximum of 1,800 watts. Even a 20 amp service will only handle 2400 watts and that is at max load which you should never load on a 20 amp circuit. You will need a 30 amp 120 volt or 240 volt service for 2400 watts.
No.
Yes, a 30 amp disconnect switch can be used for a 30 kVA transformer. The 30 amp rating refers to the switch's capacity to safely handle 30 amps of current, which is sufficient for a 30 kVA transformer's load. Just make sure to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and electrical codes when selecting and installing the disconnect switch.
