While sitting around waiting to be able to get back into my house in the Bahamas I’ve managed to frustrate myself thinking about voltage and amp calculations.
I have an 803a which peaks out at 53 amps. If I am correct, this is measured at line 1 or line 3 but they amperage is not combined.
IE 20 amps on L1 and L3 is only 20 amps, not 40 amps.
Each line produces 120v when I show 240v on the meter.
If this is a 10kw system how much power in watts am I pulling if each leg shows 20 amps? Is it 4800 watts?
What if I turned the voltage back to 220v? Could I pull more amps?
