70 amp
To determine the correct size breaker, you need to ensure that it is rated higher than the running amps of the unit. For a unit drawing 58 running amps, a breaker that is rated for at least 70 amps would be appropriate to provide a safety margin and prevent tripping due to overload.
If there is any additional load on the outlets greater than 2.5 amps the breaker will trip. Loads of 1500 watts should be on a dedicated breaker. If the total load exceeds 15 amps the breaker will operate. However many of the outlets might supply only lights, TVs or nothing at all, so in those conditions it's OK.
Assuming each 75-watt bulb draws 0.625 amps (75 watts / 120 volts), a 20-amp breaker can handle up to 32 such bulbs (20 amps / 0.625 amps per bulb). However, it is recommended to not exceed 80% of the breaker's capacity, so in practical terms, around 25-26 bulbs would be a safe maximum to ensure the breaker does not overload.
A double breaker is a breaker that has 2 switches on it. One of the switches is 20 amps and the other is 30 amps.
A 400 watt heater can safely be used on a 15 amp circuit. The size breaker needed for a circuit is determined by the size of the wiring in that circuit. AWG #14 wire requires a 15 amp breaker. AWG # 12 wire requires a 20 amp breaker.
A clothes dryer typically draws the most amps among common home appliances, with an average of around 20 amps.
It depends on how many amps each TV draws. The continuous load should be 80% of teh breaker or 12 amps. If an average TV draws 2.5 amps that would be 4 TVs. Look for a rating plate on TV and just add the currents up.
The number that is on a breaker is the amount of amperage that the breaker can deliver before it trips. This is the same regardless of how many poles the breaker is.
It limits the current to the circuit at 20 Amps. If a load on the circuit draws more than 20 Amps the breaker will trip and interrupt the current to all devices on the circuit.
No, it is not safe or recommended to connect a 200 amp service to a 125 amp panel. The panel must be rated to match the amperage of the service to avoid overloading the panel and potential fire hazards. It is important to upgrade the panel to match the service amperage.
Full load amps (FLA) refer to the maximum current a motor draws under full load condition, while running load amps (RLA) refer to the current a motor draws while running under operating conditions. RLA is typically lower than FLA since motors are often not running at full load.
Depending upon what type of "unit", you would want at least an 85-amp breaker, and the next standard size would be 90 amps. You might use an 80, depending upon the duty cycle of the unit, but the 90 will be required for constant use.
If there is any additional load on the outlets greater than 2.5 amps the breaker will trip. Loads of 1500 watts should be on a dedicated breaker. If the total load exceeds 15 amps the breaker will operate. However many of the outlets might supply only lights, TVs or nothing at all, so in those conditions it's OK.
A double breaker is a breaker that has 2 switches on it. One of the switches is 20 amps and the other is 30 amps.
A #10 wire has the capacity for 30 amps. No breaker larger than 30 amps should be used to protect the circuit.
A 400 watt heater can safely be used on a 15 amp circuit. The size breaker needed for a circuit is determined by the size of the wiring in that circuit. AWG #14 wire requires a 15 amp breaker. AWG # 12 wire requires a 20 amp breaker.
It depends on what else you are running in the house. Add up your amperage to see if it is more than the 125amp rating. Which should be below 105 amps constant to keep from overheating the main breaker. If you are not running a big central ac system or a electric oven and water heater you should have no problem running the hot tub.
A 2000 watt heater draws 8.3 amps on a 240 v supply, so the cutout should be set to 10 or 12 amps. <<>> In North America a 2000 watt baseboard heater will be fed with a two pole 15 amp breaker. A two wire cable of #14 copper will be used to connect the supply voltage to the heater.
