[QUOTE="MacFromOK, post: 3666243, member: 40864"] No... 80% efficient would turn 80% of the applied power into heat, not 20%. Your own 100% example shows this. Not sure where you're getting this info... Our house (Farmers Home Administration code, built in '76) has 12ga wiring and 20A breakers. Voltage (last time I checked) runs a little over 120V (room outlets) and a little over 240V (water heater, dryer, etc.). :drunk2: ___ [/QUOTE]
