The maximum wattage that a 30 amp breaker can handle is 30 x 230 = 6900 watts. Other variables come into play and this number will decrease depending on the load, duty time, and difference in voltage fluctuation.


Why will too many electrical devices operating at one time after blow a fuse or trip a circuit breaker?

The load exceeds the limit of the breaker or fuse. For example a 20 amp breaker on a 120 volt circuit will handle 2400 watts. Exceed that wattage and the breaker will trip or the fuse will blow.


If you have a 30 amp breaker how many watts can it use?

To answer this question a voltage must be given. Watts = Amps x Volts. <<>> Answer At 115 volts ac, 30 amps equals 3,450 watts.


How many watts can be put on a 20 amp 208 volt circuit breaker?

A 20 amp circuit breaker at 208 volts can handle up to 4160 watts (20 amps x 208 volts = 4160 watts). This is calculated by multiplying the amperage by the voltage to determine the maximum wattage capacity of the circuit.


How many watts can be on a 15amp breaker?

At 120 volts a 15 amp breaker can be loaded to 1800 watts before it will trip. If it is a continuous load then the electrical code states that it is only allowed to be loaded to 80%. This will be 1800 x .8 = 1440 watts. If the voltage is not 120 volts use the following equation Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps being the breaker size that is to be used.
