30 amp Electric Range

[Grouch]

I'm looking for a 30 amp electric range (208 volt, single phase). The minimum I'm finding from manufacturers is 40 amps.

Does anybody know of 30 amp ranges? I'm only finding 30 amp ovens... but I need a range (oven + cooktop).

I didn’t do the math but a 240 volt range on 208 will be somewhat less.

I'll take a 240 volt range as well. Primarily looking for one that will be on a 30 amp breaker.

I didn’t do the math but a 240 volt range on 208 will be somewhat less.

The math is 75%, so resistive heating elements rated at 240V 40A should be rated at 208V 30A. Although I did not confirm by reading 220.55 that this works for ranges

[208V = sqrt(3) * 120V ; 240V = 2 * 120V ; ratio is sqrt(3)/2; P = V²/R, so the ratio for P is 3/4.]
