How many watts can a 15 gauge wire handle?
1440
How many watts and romex gauge is safe for a 15amp breaker?
Assuming 120 VAC in a residence maximum watts = 15 x 120 = 1800 Watts. For a continuous load you can support 1440 watts which is 80& of maximum. You need 14 AWG gauge wire.
How many watts can run through 12-3 wire?
Wire is rated in ampacity, You can use only 80% of the rated ampacity. Voltage and amperage are inversely proportional. So at 120 volts alternating current you safely run 1800 watts ( I have added a small safety margin). At 240 volts you can run 3600 watts. I hope this has answered you question Ampsxvolts=watts watts/volts=amps
How many watts of led equals 40 watts of fluorescent?
Watts are a unit of power. So 40 watts of power to an LED are the same as 40 watts of power to a fluorescent. Sometimes LEDs are rated in equivalent watts which is an attempt to relate watts to brightness or lumens. You need to compare lumens and the "temperature" of the bulbs in Kelvin to get the comparison I think you are looking for.
How many watts does 115 volts equal to an AC unit rated at 9.2 amps?
Watts = Volts x Amps x Power factor For an AC Unit I am guessing that your PF = .75 so we have 115 x 9.2 x .75 = 793.5 Watts.

How many watts is a Yamaha yg300s generator?
The Yamaha YG300S generator has a rated output of 2,800 watts and a maximum output of 3,000 watts.
How many amps is 2 gauge wire 12 volts DC good for?
5000 watts
How many watts of electric on a 13 amp fuse 240 volts?
You need the formula: Amps * Volts = Watts But you get to do the math.
How many watts in a 320 volt dishwasher?
The rated voltage of an appliance is no guide to its power rating. To find out the power (watts), you will need to look at your washing machine's nameplate, which will indicate both its rated voltage and its rated power.
How many watts is the Alpine SPS-600 6.5 x 6.75 in. Car Speaker rated at?
The Alpine SPS-600 6.5 x 6.75 in. Car Speaker is rated at 240 watts.
How are many circular saw motors rated instead of using a horsepower rating?
in watts
How many watts is a 240 volt 20 amp fuse rated for with 10 gauge wire?
You have mixed up a lot of different things in your question. Perhaps the following formula will help: Watts = Volts x Amps x Power Factor Power Factor would be 1 for normal resistive loads like heaters and light bulbs and less than one for things with motors and such. So if you had a 240 volt circuit at 20 Amps you would have 4800 watts or 4.8 Kilowatts. However, if you have a 20 amp breaker you should not draw more than 80% of the rated amps for a continuous load like a heater. So that would be 3840 Watts. A 10 AWG wire is rated for 30 Amps under normal household conditions so it is okay to use it on a 20 amp circuit.
How many watts for a 15 amp fuse?
A 15 amp fuse can handle a maximum load of 1800 watts, as watts = amps x volts. This calculation is based on the standard voltage in most residential settings, which is 120 volts.
How many watts will a 14 gauge extension cord handle?
A 14-gauge extension cord can typically handle up to 15 amps or 1800 watts for short periods, with a recommended continuous load of around 1440 watts to avoid overheating. It's always best to refer to the manufacturer's specifications for the specific extension cord in question.
