All circuits in a kitchen must be 20 amps wired with AWG 12/2 wire. You should have 2 dedicated 20 amp outlet circuits each protected by a GFCI. A dedicated 20 amp circuit for each of these. Dishwasher, refrigerator, garbage disposal, microwave, & lights. That is a total of 7 dedicated 20 amp circuits. This is only the 120 volt circuits and not counting any 240 volt circuits.

∙ 15y agoYou should check the name plate on the stove to find out the wattage of the stove. If this is not feasible then look in the manual that you got with the stove. Then use the formula, Watts = amps x volts. Amps = Watts/Volts. The voltage going to a stove is usually 240 volts.
10 AWG 3 wires + ground.
Most electrical codes require a dedicated 50 ampere 240 volt circuit for a kitchen electrical range (#6/3 cable).
A 30 ampere circuit would be suitable for a series of outlets that powered cooking appliances such as microwave oven, counter top toaster oven, electric roaster, etc..

The above statement is not true in North America. The electrical code requires dedicated or split receptacles to handle small appliances. The breaker feeding these circuits is rated at 15 amps. Manufactures have limited their equipment to 1500 watts maximum to stay within the 80% maximum conductor loading of a #14 wire.
Standard new construction requires a two pole 40 amp breaker connected to 3C - #8 wire. Using a 30 amp breaker would cause needless tripping of the breaker should full use of the stove ever be needed.

∙ 11y agoThe answer would depend upon how many watts the stove is rated for.
For example, a 10 kW stove at 220 would be 45 amps. (I = P / E)

How many amps does 500 watt halogen pull?
At 120 volts it will pull 4.166 amps. At 240 volts it will pull 2.08 amps.
How many amps in a small table lamp?
A 120 volt table lamp with a 75 watt bulb will pull 0.625 amps. With a 100 watt bulb it will pull 0.833 amps. And with a modern fluorescent 13 watt bulb it will pull 0.108 amps.
How many amps does a 600 watt low voltage transformer box pull?
The transformer itself does not pull current. Whatever you connect to the transformer pulls current. Whatever the output voltage of the transformer is, divide that into 600 and you get maximum current possible without burning up the transformer. At 24V that's 25 amps.
What can you run off a 50 Amp breaker?
Anything that does not pull over 50 amps.
How many amps does 6000 watts pull?
There are zero amps in 6600 watts. Watts are the product of amps times volts. W = A x V. To find amperage use the following equation, A = W/V, so as you can see a voltage value is needed in the equation to result in an amperage.
How many amps does 500 watt halogen pull?
At 120 volts it will pull 4.166 amps. At 240 volts it will pull 2.08 amps.
How many amps does a 400w power inverter pull?
Aprox 12 amps.
How many amps in a small table lamp?
A 120 volt table lamp with a 75 watt bulb will pull 0.625 amps. With a 100 watt bulb it will pull 0.833 amps. And with a modern fluorescent 13 watt bulb it will pull 0.108 amps.
How many amps would a slow cooker at 250 watts pull at 110 volts?
About 2.25 Amps.
How many amps will an 12000 btu air conditioner pull?
at 230v it will use 5 to 6 amps
How many amps per leg can you pull on a 50 amp 3 phase connector?
On a 50 amp 3 phase connector, you can pull 50 amps per leg. This means that each of the three phases can carry up to 50 amps individually, resulting in a total capacity of 50 amps per leg.
How many amps will an 8000 btu air conditioner pull?
10.92 Amp
What is the ampere range value of transformer?
This typically has to do with how many amps you can safely pull from the secondary of the transformer.
How many locked rotor amps does a dual phase 4 ton air conditioner pull?
5
How many amps does a 17inch monitor use?
A 17-inch monitor typically uses between 0.5 to 2 amps of current depending on the model and specifications. It's recommended to refer to the monitor's user manual or specifications for the exact current draw.
How many kilowatts does 7 amps pull?
Seven amps pulls zero kilowatts . W = A x V. You need to state a voltage to multiply the amperage by to get watts. Then divide by 1000 to get kilowatts.
Your electric range burner spikes to 16 amps. Then drops back to 8 amps?
The spike in amperage to 16 amps indicates a momentary increase in power consumption by the electric range burner, possibly due to a high demand for heat. The drop back to 8 amps suggests that the burner has stabilized its power consumption once the desired temperature has been reached. This variation in amperage is normal during the heating cycle of an electric burner.
