How many watts or amps draw on a GE water heater model se50m12aa01?
The GE water heater SE50M12AA01 is a 5500 watts or 5.5 Kilowatts water tank. The amperage on such a tank is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. Since most hot water tanks in North America use a voltage of 240, the amps will be 22.9 amps. It must be fed with a #10 conductor from a 30 amp breaker.
How many amps does a 208 volt 3 phase 45 kw hot water heater draw?
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amps = (kW × 1000) / (√3 × Volts). Plugging in the values, we get: Amps = (45 × 1000) / (√3 × 208) ≈ 131.1 amps. So, the hot water heater would draw approximately 131.1 amps.

What wire for a hot water tank?
In North America the cable used for wiring a hot water tank is two conductor #12. It is rated at 20 amps. This is for a normal 4000 watt tank. Larger wattage tanks will of course take a larger size conductor due to the greater current draw. These tanks require a 240 volt supply. To find the amperage of your tank use this equation; Amps = Watts/volts
A 208V water heater can te be replaced by a 240V water heater?
Yes but you will not get the full watt rating out of the tank. Watts = amps x volts. Say the tank draws 20 amps. 20A x 240V = 4800 watts. 20A x 208V = 4160 watts. It will take longer to heat your water with less wattage.
How many volts is 136 amps?
Volts and Amps are measurements of different things. Volts can be viewed as similar to pressure in water, where Amps can be equated to the volume of water that flows in a hose. So a battery with a circuit connected can be considered in terms of a water tank with a hose attached. The Tank provides potential energy as water pressure (Volts in the battery), the hose in the circuit which will allow current to flow when switched on (Current in Amps in an electric circuit. The size of the hose (Resistance in an electric circuit) as well as the water pressure will determine how much water will flow, (Current). So you can have Voltage with no current - Full water tank but taps closed, but you can't have current with out voltage - If the tank is empty (battery flat) no water can flow. The relationship between Volts (V), Amps (I) and Resistance (R) is called Ohms Law and is as follows: V = I x R So if in the circuit the resistance was 1 Ohm then 136 Amps would require a voltage source of 136 x 1 = 136 Volts, however if the resistance of the circuit was 10 Ohms the the voltage source would be 136 x 10 = 1,360 Volts.
Your water heater has two 4500 watt elements what size wire should you use?
For two 4500 watt elements, you should use 10-gauge wire for a 240-volt circuit. This wire size can handle the load required for both elements while ensuring safe operation. Be sure to consult local building codes and regulations to ensure compliance.
What ampts on the breaker do you needfor a 4500 watt hot water tank?
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.
How is an electric water heater wired?
An electric water heater is typically wired to a circuit breaker panel using a dedicated circuit. The wiring includes connecting the hot and neutral wires from the circuit panel to the water heater's thermostat and heating elements. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and adhere to local electrical codes when wiring an electric water heater.
How many amps is in 19.2 volts?
Amps vary depending on mode of use. Usually 19 Volt batteries usually have a 2 ampere hour capacity. If you fully charged the battery and connected it to drill and started a timer when you turned it on at full power; you could measure the time to fully discharge. If it ran for 1 hour you would be pulling two amps. On the other hand if you shorted out the battery it would draw many more amps and die quite quickly.

Does both elements on an electric water heater operate at the same time?
No, typically only one heating element operates at a time in an electric water heater. The upper element is used first to heat the water near the top of the tank, and then the lower element is used if more hot water is needed. This helps to improve energy efficiency and the overall heating process.
