- A certain type of control connects electric heating units to a 120-volt supply or a 240-volt supply, depending on the amount of the temperature drop in a room. These controls are supplied from a 120/240-volt, 3-wire, single-phase source. Assuming that this type of device controls a 240-volt, 2000-watt heating unit, what is the wattage produced when the control supplies 120 volts to the heating unit?
