How much power can be supplied by a 200A, 240V service? 24kVa, or 48kVA?


That's been asked an answered many times in this thread. It's 48,


Very good. Now divide 48kVA by 120V and tell me what you get.


Again, this has been answered here repeatedl, so I don't see why you
keep asking.. * One more time, it's obviously 400 amps.


Which is exactly what I've been telling you for the last four days: a 200A
240V service will support 400A of 120V loads. I'm glad you finally figured it
out.


That has never been in dispute. What has been is how many physical
amps are flowing in the service cable circuit of a 200 amp service?
Here's a hint: Try answering this simple physics question without
refering to voltage or power.
