How many amps does 3000 watts pull?

Answer 1

Using the equation Volts X Amps = Watts, you can take 3000 watts / Volts to get your answer:

3000W/240V = 12.5A

or

3000W/120V = 25A

So, at 240 volts you will use 12.5 amps for 3000 watts of power. Or at 120 volts you will use 25 watts.

Answer 2

To calculate the amperage, divide the watts by the voltage. For example, at 120 volts, 3000 watts would pull 25 amps (3000 watts / 120 volts = 25 amps).

Answer 3

Depends on the voltage. In general, Watts = Voltage x Amps. So Amps = Watts / Voltage.

Example: 30,000 Watts / 120 Volts = 250 Amps.

Answer 4

There are zero amps in 3000 watts. One equation for amps is I = W/E.

Where I = amps, W = watts and E = volts.

Answer 5

Need to know the voltage.

Answer 6

Need to know the voltage.

Answer 7

25
