what is the max current? 20A?

Sorry, I plugged in the 110 voltage to the calculator instead of the 220 Volt. Most charts refer to the 240V rating, which is what we experience here where I live. The voltage drop is the same as the 110V rating (our voltage runs 120V). (240 down to 239.608) again less than 1 volt drop in this short run and should not over heat the cable! Hope that answers your question.

Maximum safe current would be 20 amps if both end plug connections are in good shape. House wiring 20 amp circuits are 12 gauge wire as is this cord.

I no longer have the package for this cord, but AMP charts say 20A rating. That short of a run should continuously run 20A in an open air setting with less than 1 Volt drop (120 down to 119.608), not enough to heat the cord up.

Just remember not to exceed the 10a limit, I really don't recommend running it at 10a if you dont have to, and if you do, try to get more cooling. Make sure the plus and minus are the correct polarity, and (not neccessary, but recomended) put a little voltage moniter on the output, to make sure that it is not going above 19.5v

Hi, the output is limited to whatever the input power is. Example: 12 volts @ 20 amps is 240watts total available power. If you convert it to 24 volts, you only have 10 amp outpue minus whatever the conversion draws. You can't get power out of things air. Make sure to use additional heatsinks as these are rated 150 watts max. Good luck!!

I purchased it for use with a refrigerator ................have no idea of the amps used but doubt it is near 20

I would say 15 amps max . As far as extending the leads you will create resistance in the circuit so you might have to see if your refrigerator and temp reading on the device match

Its 100A max input which would point toward 6gauge if you want to provide full current capacity. I however used 8guage as I'm only pulling maybe 60A max.

20 amps would trip most circuit breakers. Most standard household outlets are only rated for 15 amps.

It is 20V out, 3.25amps. As long as the voltage is the same the current can be higher with no issue.

First, the answer is NOT 500ma (.5) as someone else replied. That is the no-load idle current, NOT the MAXIMUM current. While I don't see an official answer, based on the claimed 87% efficiency, the maximum load and surge, and a battery voltage estimate of 13 volts, a little rough math gives us a possible full load current of a bit over 132 amps, with a possible surge current reaching twice that number. Keep in mind these are just some quick back of the napkin figures, and are not a substitute for the manufacturer's published rating. BOTTOM LINE: Contact them before wiring it, I'm just somebody on the Internet making unreliable wild-eyed claims about electricity.

In perfect conditions, that's 20W/Hour or 1.6 A/hr. or 10 amps total. (approximate values)

2.8A; use 5A fuse inline; Additional technical info can be found at http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/wwg/search.shtml?searchQuery=rule+20f&op;=search&N;tt=rule+20f&N;=0&GlobalSearch;=true&sst;=subset

The manufacturer's data says that this unit draws 13 amps at 120 volts. A dedicated circuit would be nice to have, but any 20 amp circuit that is not already running a large load (refrigerator, toaster, coffee maker etc:) should be fine.

No- for a 20a circuit requires #12 romex. Then you have to take into consideration how far your running the wire. There could be a voltage drop.

I'm not qualified to answer that question. I'm not a professional. I'm using it for lighting & a bath fan. I use a 15 amp breaker with 14g wire, not a 20. I always check manufactures recommendations. There may be local codes as well to consider when running a new circuit.

Checking amperage has safety implications, and I suspect that's why low-cost units are limited to 20A. You can get more information from the following video: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ar7qkMHKw4

Hello max current of this #10 PV cable is 30 amps Hoe this info helps youJoe

I had the same problem at the time determining the maximum current but I think most fans should be ok. I used it for a fairly large fan so I'm guessing most is good for most 15 amp circuits .
