How many amps does a 220 ac use?

Answer 1

There is no standard Amperage for a 220 volt outlet. It all depends on the wires/conductors used to supply the outlet and the breaker that protects it.

You can have an outlet with:

15 amp, 220 volt

20 amp, 220 volt

And so on.....

Answer 2

The amount of amperage a 220V AC unit uses will depend on its power consumption. To calculate the amperage, divide the power consumption in watts by the voltage (220V) of the AC unit. The formula is Amps = Watts / Volts.

Answer 3

That depends on the amperage the fuse will cover. Usually 10 amperes.

Answer 4

That depends what you connect to 220 volts AC; a low-power device will need few amperes, a high-power device will need more.
