A house will have a counter-mounted cooking unit with a nameplate rating of 4 kW and a wall-mounted oven with a nameplate rating of 6 kW. A separate individual branch circuit will be run to the counter-mounted cooking unit and to the wall-mounted oven. What is the branch circuit load for each of the appliances in amperes?
What will be an ideal response?
To calculate the branch circuit load for each of the appliances, use Note 4 to Table 220.55. It states that the branch circuit load for one wall-mounted oven or one counter-mounted cooking unit must be the nameplate rating of the appliance. The branch circuit load for the countertop cooking unit is calculated as: 4000 W/240 V = 16.67 amperes. The branch circuit load for the wall-mounted oven is calculated as: 6000 W/240 V = 25 amperes.
