30,60,100,200,400 and 600 amp
You would need a 20 amp switch when the load controlled by the switch can draw as much as 20 amps. If you have a 20 Amp breaker supplying the circuit then you need to size all switches and outlets on that circuit to 20 amps.
The switch will use no wattage whatsoever. The load on that switch is what uses power. If you know the load is 5 amps then 5 amps at 120 volts is 600 watts.
To calculate the amps needed for a 5.9kW hob, use the formula Amps = Watts / Volts. Assuming a standard UK voltage of 230V, the amp requirement would be around 25.65A. Therefore, you would need a cooker switch rated for 30A to ensure proper operation.
10 amps 250 volts or 16 amps 250 volts.
To calculate amps from VA, you can use the formula: Amps = VA / Volts. Assuming the standard voltage in residential settings is 120V, then 145VA / 120V = 1.21A. Therefore, 145VA is approximately equal to 1.21 amps.
A safety switch does not provide overload or over current protection. The safety switch is positioned just before the motor and just after the motor protection equipment. To wire a safety switch, the line in from the motor protection goes to the top of the switch and the motor load connects to the bottom of the safety switch. The switch must have at minimum of a 240 volt rating and have an amperage rating of not less than 30 amps. Wire sizing for the connection will be #10 conductor which has a rating of 30 amps.
The maximum amperage capacity of a 400 amp meter base with two 200 amp disconnects is 400 amps.
The maximum amperage capacity of a 400 amp meter main with two 200 amp disconnects is 400 amps.
15 amps
A standard outlet in the United States is typically rated for 15 amps.
A standard wall outlet in the United States is typically rated for 15 amps.
A standard outlet typically provides around 15-20 amps of electricity.
It depends on the particular switch. The ones you can find at Radio Shack, for example, vary from 3 amps to 50 amps.
About 0.6 amps for a 12v 21w bulb
A standard wall outlet typically provides around 15-20 amps of electrical current.
A 200 amp outdoor service disconnect switch is a device used to disconnect power from a building. It is typically weatherproof and designed for outdoor use. The switch has a rating of 200 amps, meaning it can handle up to 200 amps of electrical current. It is equipped with features such as a lockable handle, a durable enclosure, and is designed to meet safety standards for outdoor installations.
You would need a 20 amp switch when the load controlled by the switch can draw as much as 20 amps. If you have a 20 Amp breaker supplying the circuit then you need to size all switches and outlets on that circuit to 20 amps.
