The terminal strip's rating is 15 amps at 600 volts. It does not matter what the voltage is up to 600 volts, the maximum amperage allowed on the strip is 15 amps. It could be 15 amps at 12 volts or 15 amps at 600 volts or any voltage in between.
When you multiply amps x volts the product is watts. Using this formula W = Amps x Volts should give you your answer.
A 12 AWG wire is typically rated for 20 amps in standard household wiring. At 240 volts, this wire can safely carry up to 20 amps of current.
Fuses are rated in Amps. Although the physical size of a fuse is to do with volts; the further the terminals are apart the less likelihood there is of 'sparkover' between them.
You need the formula: Amps * Volts = Watts But you get to do the math.
Yes, a 16-gauge wire is typically rated to handle up to 13 amps, which would be sufficient for a 1500 watt heater operating at 120 volts. However, it's always best to consult a professional electrician to ensure the wire size is appropriate for the specific installation.
When you multiply amps x volts the product is watts. Using this formula W = Amps x Volts should give you your answer.
A 1,000 watt inverter giving 110 volts is rated at 9 amps.
No. Your power supply must be able to supply rated voltage (12 volts) and rated current (3 amps).
A 12 AWG wire is typically rated for 20 amps in standard household wiring. At 240 volts, this wire can safely carry up to 20 amps of current.
A # 14 copper conductor will be fine to carry 8 amps at 120 volts. This size conductor is rated at 15 amps.
Breakers and other electrical equipment are rated in voltage so you know what voltage they can withstand. The breaker could fail and start a fire if you apply a higher voltage than it is rated for. Breakers are actually rated in amps (current in excess of this will trip it), interrupting rating (how many amps the breaker can handle during a short circuit) and in volts (is the difference of potential or the pressure that is pushing the current). The breaker I am looking at is rated for 15 amps, 10,000 amps interrupting rating and 120/240 volts.
An 18 gauge wire can handle a maximum amperage of approximately 16.5 amps at 12 volts.
6 AWG will handle 50 amps with a voltage drop of about 4 volts. If you go to 4 AWG and limit to 50 amps your voltage drop will be 2.5 volts.
Fuses are rated in Amps. Although the physical size of a fuse is to do with volts; the further the terminals are apart the less likelihood there is of 'sparkover' between them.
You would need to use a #12 copper conductor to continuously draw 14 amps at 120 volts.
