Question:

What is the ampere draw of a 50-gallon water heater?

Answer:

Henry Johnson, Plumbing Expert

The amperage draw of a 50-gallon water heater depends on its wattage and the voltage of your electrical system. Most residential water heaters operate on 240 volts. To calculate the amperage, divide the wattage by the voltage. For example, a 4,500-watt water heater would draw 18.75 amps (4,500 ÷ 240 = 18.75). For assistance with water heater installation or its maintenance, the experts at 5 Star Plumbing are ready to help.
