I have a 200 amp panel and all electric. Big items 50 amp cook stove, 30amp clothes dryer 3DP 20amp baseboard heat. Can I use the 24 set at only 115

I would say no as it is a 240v unit. I don't think the unit would heat the water sufficiently.

Yes you can use this unit. Make sure you have it on at least a 25 amp breaker.

Not per code. The panel has a 30 Amp breaker and uses 10 GA wire. 40 Amp circuits require 8 GA.But, as long as you do not change out the 30 Amp breaker you would be safe. This would mean that turning on too many burners would blow the breaker. All depends on whether you're doing the install yourself or having an electrician do it. He won't do it but you could if you're willing to accept the risks. (Your insurance wouldn't cover anything if you should have a fire.)

tay away from the 6amp converter if using the road pro stove. Get the Burton 200watt converter. I have trie the 6amp and others. It has 15 amps. use it for the same reason and also on a 75 watt fridge. A little more expensive but you will be happy with it. It has a build in fan that is a little loud but keeps the unit very cool. Hope this helps.

you can do it. Use 1/16 rod and keep amperage low. If this works out try 5/64 rod. I recommend 6013.

to fine amperage from wattage it is a simple calculation Watts divided by volts.. so 24 div 12 is 2 amps

According to the quick installation guide, the maximum amp draw of this unit is 100 amps and not 200 amps as stated on some posts here. How much amp it draws depends on your water usage and temperature. Temperature can be adjusted between 80⁰F - 140⁰F. It does require three 40 amps breakers and that may pose an issue when it comes to older homes. Most older homes main panel is 100 amps with little room for expansion. A 200 amp panel upgrade may very well be worth it.

Yes, your two panels should have less than 20 amps output, under the best conditions. They should put out about 7.5 amps each, equaling 15, well within the 20 handled by the controller...

I don't feel that thee is enough difference between 200 watt and 300 watt heater unless the heater were to malfunction. The 300 would in my opinion be better if you live in a colder climate and kept your home heat at a lower temperature

Generally 15 amps is enough for most rooms (bedrooms, living rooms and bathrooms ect). In my experience 20 amp is usually used in the kitchen / landry room and garage as it is required / helpful for power equipment, toasters and microwaves - high amp / resistance equipment.

30 amp 220 volt breaker and 30 amp wiring only! Using a smaller breaker and wire is a fire hazard because breakers don't always trip when overloaded! If the 20 amp breaker fails to trip then the wire will heat up like a burner on an electric stove and will catch on fire.

No. 1 250 watt max at 12 volts or 2 250 watt panels at 24 volts. Charger is 20 amp max. Take total solar panel watts and divide by system volts. 250/12 or 500/24. =20 amps

I would say NO. How many amps are the panels putting out. I would guess around 20 amps x 6 = 120 amp this is only rated at 45 amps. You need to calculate the amp output then determine the controller you need. I believe they make larger amp units. Otherwise, this is a great controller

If the floor radiant heat is 240 volts, like many are, I don't suggest trying to use it. If the radiant heater is 120 volts then just make sure the current draw of the heater does exceed 20 amps which is what this thermostat will handle.

I have a 1200 and use it in mine. I don't cook on hi for a long period of time. I tend to use a lesser power and mainly steam.

this is a 30 amp connection most circut breakers are 20 or 25amp this is more for high current like 1 line off a gennerator or contractor running equipment this is for over 2000 watts Also this is good if you run a very long cord the longer the cordthe lower gauge you will need to run something that uses lot of power, like 1800 watt hair blow dryer or electric heater

Since the unit has a 1,500W heating element, two fans, and two lamps, I would err on the side of prudence and give it its own 20-amp circuit (which, by the way, the specifications in the Amazon product description (http://www.amazon.com/Broan-QTX110HL-Silent-Series-Heater/dp/B000QE7F26/ref=cm_cd_al_qh_dp_i).
