You need to look at the rating plate on the freezer. My Kenmore upright freezer draws 5.0 A. Look for a number followed by the word amps or something like 5.0 A.

How many amps does a deep freezer draw on start up?

A deep freezer can draw between 6 to 8 times its running amps on start-up, depending on the model and size of the freezer. For example, if a freezer runs at 6 amps, it could draw between 36 to 48 amps when starting up.


How much does a basic home freezer pull in amps?

10 to 12 amps at 110 volts, as a surge when the motor first starts up, then about half that during the rest of the cycle.


How many amps in 40 kva?

To calculate the amperage of a 40 kVA load, you will need to know the voltage. The formula is: Amps = kVA / Volts. Assuming a standard line voltage of 120V, the amperage for a 40 kVA load would be approximately 333 amps.


How many amps needed for a 9000 btu unit at 240 volts?

9000 BTU/hour is equivalent to 2300 watts so the heater will draw 10 amps on 230 volts.


How many amps does a Kenmore chest freezer pull?

How many amps really depends on the size of freezer...but, normally during the START cycle (that lasts about 10-seconds, from the time the compressor kicks on, until it gets going), the surge of START can take 10-12 amps, though most freezers can comfortably start in a 68-degree F room at about 8-amps. Once the compressor is running, it takes 2-3 amps to keep the compressor running. When the compressor kicks off (standard cycle is about 80% off, 20% on for a new freezer), then it draws NO POWER at all, unless it has a heated lid-seal, and then it will draw about 1-amp...possibly on a timer cycle (<100-watts). Keep in mind...that <600 Kw/h rating for the energy star is based off of a MOSTLY-OFF cycle time...if that compressor has to run a lot (because you placed it on your back deck, or in your HOT garage) then you can expect power consumptions to double, triple, etc.!

How many amps needed to change 6volts to 12volts?

You cannot increase voltage by adding amps.


How many amps does a deep freezer pull?

The amp draw of a deep freezer typically ranges from 3 to 10 amps, depending on its size and efficiency. Smaller models may use around 3-5 amps, while larger or more energy-intensive units can pull up to 10 amps or more. To determine the exact amp usage, it's best to check the manufacturer's specifications or the freezer's energy label.


What is the average wattage a freezer uses?

Voltage X amps = wats 120 volt freezer drawing 2 amps is 240 watts running note it can take up to 3 to 4 times that to start. you have rla run load amps then you have LRA Lock rotor amps (what it takes to start)


How many amps needed for 50kva?

To answer this question a voltage value must be stated. Divide the voltage into 50 KVA and your answer will be in amps.


How many things are needed to have current?

How many amps are needed for 24hours?

Depends on how many, and what electrical appliances you have. If you are on 110volts, the current (amps) at any time are the kiloWatts you are running times 1000 (=watts) divided by 110


How many amps is needed to run a 1450 watt coffee maker?

A 1450 watt coffee maker will use around 13 amps at 110 volts.


11.6 amps equals how many watts?

11.6 amps equals zero watts. Watts is the product of amps times volts. W = A x V. As you can see voltage is needed to obtain the wattage of a device.


How many amps are needed to efficiently run a caravan refrigerator?

The formula for amperage is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. As you can see there are two values missing from the question.
