120 volts

Electric Vs. Gas Heating Electric stoves require a 240-V circuit to supply enough electricity to power the heating elements, which get hot because of electrical resistance. Most gas ovens use electricity, however.

if Gasline is standard then there should be 110V outlet there already. hystat wrote: a gas range plugs into any standard 120V outlet in your kitchen. Any one close enough to the stove area will work as long as the cord on the stove is long enough.

The gas range should have an area towards the bottom of the appliance. Put the receptacle low.

A gas stove requires both electricity and gas to function properly. Gas stoves no longer rely on a pilot light to ignite the burners. In addition, the large 240 volt electrical receptacle will need to be replaced with a standard 120 volt receptacle for the gas stove to plug in to.

You can’t power a refrigerator and microwave on the same circuit. According to the 2020 version of the NEC, you can’t power a microwave and refrigerator on the same circuit because each of these appliances requires a dedicated circuit, which is one shared by no other appliances or lights.

The microwave oven needs a dedicated 20-amp, the 120/125-volt circuit to feed it. This will require 12/2 NM wire with a ground. Although it’s not uncommon to see microwave ovens plugged into standard appliance outlets, larger microwave ovens can draw as much as 1500 watts, and these need their own dedicated circuits.

Typically, a microwave oven draws from 9 Amps – 15 Amps at 120 Volts or about 5 Amps – 9 Amps at 220 Volts depending upon the input power rating.

A standard 1,000-watt microwave uses 8.3 amps, but it can use as little as 4.5 watts. Your 700-watt microwave may use only 5.8 amps. It is okay to place most manufactured microwaves on a 20-amp circuit without damaging the unit or circuit.

Imagine your microwave is rated for 1,000 watts, which is typical for a full-size countertop model, and your electricity rate is the national average of 12 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh). At full power, that microwave will consume about . 02 kWh per minute, which will cost you about one fifth of one penny.

Typical wattage for microwave ovens ranges between 750 and 1,100, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Though utility companies such as Georgia Power estimate that amperage for most small appliances falls between 15 and 20, some microwaves have an amp rating as low as 10.

The suggested circuit breaker size for the kitchen stove is 50 amps, 220 volts. This is a double breaker. Single breakers normally carry 110 volts. It must be a dedicated circuit for the stove only, meaning that no other appliances or outlets can be served by that circuit.

Yes. Electric stoves draw anywhere from 30 to 60 amps on average. This is much more than your typical 20-amp breaker can handle. So it definitely needs to be on its own circuit breaker with enough amperage.

Central AC Electrical Requirements Central air conditioning units require 208/240 volts. They must be hard wired and have a dedicated circuit. Units require anywhere from 15-60 amps depending on how many tons they are.
