In a 240v, two bulb parallel circuit, what is
the total wattage of the circuit?


Sagot :

Answer:

As the two lamps are connected across 240 V AC supply, Total current in the  circuit = 240/576 A = 5/12 A. As the circuit is purely resistive in nature, Power factor = 1.

60-amp 240-volt circuit: 60 amps x 240 volts = 14,400 watts

Hope that helps:)
