∙ 12y agoA maximum load of 15 amps or 1875 watts is the maximum electrical capacity that a circuit can handle. Exceeding this limit can cause overheating and potentially lead to fires. It is important to always adhere to these limits to ensure the safety of the electrical system.
Watts = Amps x Volts x Power Factor Power factor varies from 0 to 1 with 1 being a pure resistive load like a light bulb. A motor would have a lesser value. So if your load is resistive just use 1 x 440.
20 Amp * 120 Volts = 2400 Watts 2400 Watt * 80% max use = 1920 Watts planned normal usage for a circuit with a 20 Amp breaker.
To find the amperage, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. So, for 1.5 watts at 12 volts, the amperage would be 0.125 amps.
Power (in watts) is equal to voltage (in volts) multiplied by current (in amperes). Therefore, the number of watts in one amp depends on the voltage. For example, at 120 volts, one amp is equal to 120 watts.
A 20-amp GFCI outlet would be best for 1600 watts, as it can handle up to 2400 watts at 120 volts. Make sure to check the manufacturer's specifications for the specific outlet to ensure it can safely handle the load.

No. A 120 volt 15 amp service will handle a maximum of 1,800 watts. Even a 20 amp service will only handle 2400 watts and that is at max load which you should never load on a 20 amp circuit. You will need a 30 amp 120 volt or 240 volt service for 2400 watts.

Watts= voltage times amps. So if you divide Watts by voltage, you will get amps = .33333 or about a 1/3 amp load. This is assuming a 120 volt circuit.
you ohm load is too low. raise the ohm load or buy an amp that is stable at the ohm level of the sub.
To calculate the amperage needed for 1500 watts at 120 volts, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, it would be 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps. Therefore, you would need a 15 amp breaker for this circuit to accommodate the power load safely.
Maximum 23,000 watts provided the power factor of the load is 1 (e.g. a heater). For a typical motor with a power factor of 0.8 the watts would be 18,400.
A 12 gauge wire can support a load of approximately 2200 watts.
