The Formula

Single Phase: Amps = (kW × 1000) ÷ Volts. For 10 kW at 240V: (10 × 1000) ÷ 240 = 41.67A.

Three Phase: Amps = (kW × 1000) ÷ (Volts × 1.732). For 10 kW at 240V 3φ: (10 × 1000) ÷ (240 × 1.732) = 24.06A.

Wire and Breaker for 10 kW

At 240V single-phase (41.7A), recommended: 6 AWG copper with a 55A breaker. Use our Wire Size Calculator for exact sizing.
