Best Answer

The formula you are looking for is Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = Watts/Volts. This comes to 4 amps load. Minimum size fuse would be 5 amps.

How do you test the psi rating of a concrete hollow block and where can you test it?

by using the universal testing machine, you can get the actual max load needed to fracture the hollow block and by using the formula, Compressive strength =load(lb)/Areaofcrosssection(in2) u can get the psi rating..


Why would i need a 20-Amp Single-Pole Switch insted of a 15 Amp?

A 20-Amp single-pole switch is needed if you are controlling a circuit that has a higher current capacity (20 Amps) compared to a 15-Amp switch. Using a switch with a lower amperage rating than the circuit can handle may cause overheating and potential safety hazards. Always match the switch amperage rating with the circuit's capacity to ensure safe operation.

Thank you Is it possible to do the wiring in aluminum or is that old school?

Today the only use of aluminum wire is in service entrances and underground feeds where the larger sizes are needed. By using aluminum the overall project wire costs are kept to a minimum even with the bigger size needed over copper. Wiring branch circuit in aluminum has not been vogue for many years now.

Can you use a 250v 15 amp fuse for a 125v 15 amp?

No, it is not safe to use a 250V 15A fuse in a 125V circuit. The voltage rating of the fuse should match or exceed the circuit voltage to ensure safety. Using a lower voltage rated fuse can lead to overheating and potentially create a fire hazard. Always use the correct fuse rating for your circuit.

Can you use 2 20amp circuit breakers to protect to 40amp?

No, it is not safe to use two 20 amp circuit breakers to protect a 40 amp circuit. Circuit breakers are designed to protect the wiring in a circuit from overheating, and using a higher amperage circuit breaker than the wiring is rated for can lead to overheating and potential fire hazards. It is important to use the correct size circuit breaker for the amperage rating of the circuit.
