I'll bet you guys are sick of hearing about the cabin ;-)
Well, you see in this properly wired and grounded lake cabin, we have a small galley kitchen. Accordingly we have downsized our appliances.
We plan to purchase a 24" /240VAC Electric Range with the following features:
Cooking Element 8" @ 2200 watts Cooking Element 6" @ 1200 watts Baking Element @ 2400 watts Broiler Element @ 2750 watts
I think I know, but I wanted to run it by the community...
To estimate the proper breaker/wire size wouldn't I take the total wattage and divide that by 240 Volts to get my amperage? In this case AMPS= 35.625 So, I would need at least a 40 AMP Breaker and #8 copper conductor.
Correct?
