A 5kw electric heating unit is connected to a 240 V line wha

A 5kw electric heating unit is connected to a 240 V line what is the current flow of the circuit?

Solution

the current flow depends on power rating of the electric unit and supply voltage to which we are connecting it.

we know power = current * voltage

by rearranging this equation we get, current = power/voltage

The current flow of the circuit=5kw/240 V=5000/240=20.833 A
