Had an electric water heater today that I have nver came across. No info and not much info on the tag at the heater. The heater itelf was very small. 12x16
It was connected by 3-30 amp 220 breakers. Seemed quite excessive.
Anyone know about these?
Tankless heaters have to heat the water on the fly. Energy demands are very high. The BTU rating on a typical gas fired tankless is 5 times the typical rating on a tank type. Actually 60A seems pretty small to me. I have seen them significantly larger, although tankless electric water heaters are pretty rare around here.
What was the wattage rating on the label?
No info tag, sorry.
Sounds like a 3-phase 208 30 amp breaker to me.
Got a picture?
