DUCT
HEATER
The duct heater contains two heating elements that are connected as shown. Each of the two elements is rated to
deliver 1850 watts when operated at 125 volts.
1. See Figure 115.317. The total current drawn by the duct heater when connected to the 208-volt circuit
is
amps.
a. 8.89
b. 15.42
c. 12.31
d. 16.89
e. 13.52

Respuesta :

answer is A 8.89


formula: P = I/V
P = 1850 watts and V = 125 volts

I = 1850/125 = 14.8 amps

208 volts to order calculate the current drawn the duct heater on the 208-volt circuit
using this formula again I = P/V

I = 1850/28

I = 8.89 amps
