No confusion??????????????:?
You must be young!
SO, I get a cooling system rated in killowatts. How does that help me wire it? DIvide KW by system voltage to get amps? I thought so, it is still read the nameplate! Now I have a product with TWO killowatt ratings. That is not confusing?:?
Much clearer with Killowatts being the amount of electricity consumed and the cooling ability in BTU or tons.
Same with motors/engines rated in horsepower. I know what a 300 HP engine does in a car. I have to convert to use KW of engine.
Cubic inch to liters is not too hard, a factor of 60.8. After 35 years most have learned what size engines are in liters.
Maybe in another 35 years when we are gone young guys will speak of KW in cars, but not yet here!:thumbsup:
By then cars will be electric and KW will seem so more applicable anyway.
In the mean time, I need some device boxes to fit those 50.8 x 101.6 studs. Easier, right!:lol:
