The typical electrical service for a house in the US is 100 to 200 amps. This means the maximum current that can be safely drawn into the house at any given time is 100 to 200 amps. It's important not to overload the circuit as it can lead to electrical hazards.

Can you have a 15 amp appliance on a 32 amp supply?
Yes, you can have a 15 amp appliance connected to a 32 amp power supply. The appliance will only draw the current it needs, in this case 15 amps, so it will not overload the 32 amp supply.
How many amps does a 100 amp service supply?
A 100 amp service will supply your electrical current needs UP TO 100 amps.When doing load calculations on a 100 amp panel it can only be loaded up to 80 amps.
How much current in amps is needed to power a 3kw amplifier at 1500 volts?
It depends on what kind of amp it is. Is it an audio amp or an rf amp . . A 3 kW audio amp would draw about 300 watts on average at most, so with a good reservoir capacitor the supply current would be 0.2 amps. A 3 kW rf amp for AM radio would draw about 4500 watts so the supply current would be 3 amps.
Why are there two 15 amp breakers connected to your 30 amp breaker?
Answer for UK, Europe and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.It is acceptable to connect two 15-amp breakers to a 30-amp supply. It woud also be acceptable in some applications to connect three 15-amp breakers if it were known that the total current would not exceed 30 amps. For example in many UK properties there is a 60-amp supply, and connected to this there are two 30-amp supplies for the ring-circuit and the cooker, plus also a 10-amp lighting supply.
Can your 40 amp electric stove be use in your new apartment of 20 amp?
If the supply is a 20 amp supply it cannot supply a 40 amp stove, you need a bigger supply or a smaller stove.
How much current flow in 1 watt bulb?
Everything Depends on the voltage supply ...... Current flow (Amp) = Watt / Voltage the Current flow will be 1 amp if voltage is 1 V the Current flow will be 0.5 amp if voltage is 2 V the Current flow will be 0.25 amp if voltage is 4 V and so on.......
How many watts will be neede to supply 400 amp welder?
It depends on the supply voltage watts = current in amps times the supply voltage
Is a double throw 15amp breaker the same as a 30 amp breaker amp?
You have a double pole breaker for 240Volt supply. The maximum current is 15 amp.
An electric iron always draws a current of 3.4 amp from the 220v supply line what current will this electric iron draws when connected to 110v supply line?
1.7amp
What is a amp hour?
It is one amp current used over one hour. A ten amp hour battery can supply 1/2 an amp for 20 hours, 1 amp for 10 hours, etc.

How do you calculate amp draw if you have a 25KW strip heater?
Divide 25,000 by the supply voltage to get the current.

If the supply is a 20 amp supply it cannot supply a 40 amp stove, you need a bigger supply or a smaller stove.
How do you calculate short circuit current?
A short circuit = 0 ohm, from this one can use ohms law to calculate the current, that is E/R voltage divided by resistance as in this instance your resistance is zero and you can't divide by zero so your current will be infinit. In other words if your power supply is large enough to supply 200 amp, your current on a short circuit will be 200 amp.
