Assuming this is standard house voltage of 120 VAC your 4500 Watt heater will draw about 37.5 amps. You would normally install a 50A breaker and would have to run 8 gauge wire.

Can a 4500 watt hot water heater run on a 20 amp circuit?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.It probably would but the 80% rule in the code requires you put this heater on a 30 amp 2 pole breaker with #10 AWG copper wire.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
