The formula you are looking for is I = W/E.
To answer this question the wattage of the block heater must be stated. Amps = Watts/Volts.
10 Amps. Amps=Watts/Volts
9000 BTU/hour is equivalent to 2300 watts so the heater will draw 10 amps on 230 volts.
The electric heater will have power rated in Watts. The Amps it will draw depends on the voltage system you are using. Can be calculated by formula I (Amps) = P / V In the USA with 110V system a 2400W heater will draw 2400 Watts / 110 Volts = 21.8 Amps In Australia with a 230 V system a 2400W heater will draw 2400 Watts / 230 Volts = 10.4 Amps
At 120 Volts you would draw about 42 amps. At 240 Volts it would be about 21 amps. For 120 Volts you would need 6 AWG and for 240 Volts you would need 10 AWG.
To answer this question the wattage of the block heater must be stated. Amps = Watts/Volts.
10 Amps. Amps=Watts/Volts
For a single phase circuit, the equation you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
9000 BTU/hour is equivalent to 2300 watts so the heater will draw 10 amps on 230 volts.
Current (amps)=Watts/Volts =2000/120 =16.75 =16.75 amps
The electric heater will have power rated in Watts. The Amps it will draw depends on the voltage system you are using. Can be calculated by formula I (Amps) = P / V In the USA with 110V system a 2400W heater will draw 2400 Watts / 110 Volts = 21.8 Amps In Australia with a 230 V system a 2400W heater will draw 2400 Watts / 230 Volts = 10.4 Amps
At 120 Volts you would draw about 42 amps. At 240 Volts it would be about 21 amps. For 120 Volts you would need 6 AWG and for 240 Volts you would need 10 AWG.
Each baseboard heater will draw a little over 4 amps at 120 volts or 2 Amps at 240 volts. The total number of baseboards on a circuit will draw the sum of these amps. Keep the load under 80% of the amperage rating of the breaker.
There are zero amps in 1000 watts. Watts are the product of amps x volts or I = W/E, watts divided by voltage. As you can see, that if no voltage is stated no amperage can be given. Once you find the voltage of the heater then use the following equation, Amps = Watts/Volts to find the current draw of the 1000 watt heater.
The formula you are looking for is I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts. Amps = 5000/230 =21.7 amps. The wire size to run this heater would be a #10 copper conductor. The supply breaker would be a two pole 30 amp breaker.
The watts is the volts times the amps So 208 x 50 watts, or 10.4 kW.
To answer this you have to know how many volts will be used. If you know the voltage then you can calculate the current by dividing voltage into wattage. For example; an electric heater rated at 700 watts when plugged into a 115 v outlet will draw 700/115 = 6.08 amps of current.
