It depends on the stove. If you can find the manual, or look up the AMPs it uses. Should be around 50. Multiply 120V if you live in the US. By the number of Amps. That will give you the total amount of watts.

∙ 14y agoThe watts depend on the size of the heating elements and how many elements are being used at the time in question. The owners manual will be able to tell you the watts for the stove top burners. The other heating elements you need to find out about are in the oven/broiler. Adding them all up will give you the total watts.
The instruction manual will tell you what size electric service you need for the range. Be aware that this will be more than the range will ever use, and will contain a safety factor as well. Electric range cords are generally 220V, 50 amps. That means it is expected to use less than 11,000 watts.

∙ 12y agoIn North America the most common size breaker for a stove is 40 amps. At 240 volts this relates to W = Amps x Volts = 9600 watts. This is the maximum amount of watts that can be drawn from that circuit. The manufacturer of different brands have different wattage's for their equipment. This is biased on the options of the stove, with added features usually drawing more to the total wattage of the stove. To find the specific wattage value of a stove look for the manufacture's nameplate on the stove. There it will tell you how much the wattage of the stove is.

What kind of electric current does an electric stove use?
An electric stove uses Alternating Current to operate.
How many watts does a stove top use?
Typical for a normal average stove: 2000 watts for the oven and each of the large rings, 1500 watts for each of the small rings and the grill. These are the max values, but when the thermosts operates in the oven, for example, it might draw power for only 20% of the time.
How many watts does an electric drill use?
To figure that out you need to know the Amperage that it draws and what the voltage of the circuit is that you're using. Once you know that you can figure out how many watts it uses by doing simple math. Voltage x Amperage = Watts
Is 20 amp 250 volts enough to use a kitchen stove?
Yes, a 20 amp 250 volt circuit is typically sufficient to power a kitchen stove. Most electric stoves require a 240 volt power supply, which can be provided by a 20 amp 250 volt circuit. However, it's always important to consult the specifications of the stove to ensure proper voltage and amperage requirements are met.
How many watts does an electric piano use?
Look on the back of the equipment for a manufactures label. If the wattage is not on the label just use this equation Watts = Amps x Volts. This will give the wattage that the piano uses whenever it is turned on.
Can you run a stove on 800 watts?
You may be able to get away with powering a natural gas stove or LPG stove on this wattage because it doesn't use heavy amperage to pull the surface ignitor to 1200 degrees or to run the sparkers which are only lit momentarily, however on an electric stove you would need 1000 watts or 3000 watts if you're trying to use a power converter off a 12v battery or something of that nature. It's probably not a good idea. You need a good 220 outlet for an electric stove.
Can you use a pressing comb on an electric stove?
Yes, you can use a electric stove. Just place it on top.
How many watts does an electric water heater use?
for a large one it is 4,000 watts and for a smaller one it is 1,000 watts
What kind of electric current does an electric stove use?
An electric stove uses Alternating Current to operate.
How many watts does a stove top use?
Typical for a normal average stove: 2000 watts for the oven and each of the large rings, 1500 watts for each of the small rings and the grill. These are the max values, but when the thermosts operates in the oven, for example, it might draw power for only 20% of the time.
What type of energy does a electric stove use?
An electric stove uses the Potential Energy of electricity and transforms it into Thermal Energy.
How many watts does a light use?
Electric lights that use from 0.02 watts to 50,000 watts have been manufactured. The CFLs, fluorescent tubes, and incandescent bulbs in your house probably operate in the range of 20-100 watts.
How many watts does an electric iron use?
To determine the number of watts of electric energy consumed by electric iron, we need to multiply the volts and the ampere used by that particular electric iron, so the product of those two is the watts used by the electric iron.
How many volts is in ten watts?
Volts and watts are different quantities and their relationship also includes the electric current. Voltage times current in amps equals the power in watts use.
Which household applaince use more power?
You can look at the rating plate on each appliance and see how many watts it is. So for example a 1500 w hair dryer, or an 1100 w microwave oven. A stove and an electric clothes dryer use more than that (but I have gas for those appliances, so I cannot look). A refrigerator would use a lot too, but I cannot see the plate on that one either. If it does not list watts but lists amps, then: Volts * Amps = Watts. Note that the 'big' appliances like the stove and clothes dryer are usually 240 volts, not 120 V.
How many watts does an electric drill use?
To figure that out you need to know the Amperage that it draws and what the voltage of the circuit is that you're using. Once you know that you can figure out how many watts it uses by doing simple math. Voltage x Amperage = Watts
What effect does wattage of an oven element have on its heat dissipation?
If they have a warming element, that will only use about 100 watts. Heating elements in a typical kitchen stove oven use 3000 watts or more. Heating elements in a typical kitchen stove oven use 3,000 watts or more. Convection ovens can use from 32 percent to 45 percent less power than standard ovens.
