You are asked to install a water heater, rated at 4-kW, 240 V. Calculate the load in amperes, and determine the branch-circuit ampere rating.
What will be an ideal response?
Since, The Code® requires the water heater rating of not less than 125% :
amperes=(watts*1.25)/volts
amperes=(4,000*1.25)/240
amperes=5,000/240=20.83A
Therefore, the branch-circuit ampere rating should be 30A.
