Textbook Question
Chapter 19.2, Problem 19R
A condominium owner complains of not getting enough hot water. The serviceman checks the voltage at the water heater and finds the voltage to be 208 volts. The serviceman checks further and finds the electrical service on the building to be a 120/208-volt, three-phase, 4-wire system. The main electrical panelboard for each condominium unit is fed with a 3-wire supply. The nameplate on the electric water heater is marked 4500 watts, 240 volts. What is the wattage output of the heating element in this water heater when connected to a 208-volt supply? _____________________
