(Greek: á½ÏÎ¸Î¿ÏÏÎ¬ÏÎ·Ï, standing upright) - Greek architecture term for the lowest course of masonry of the external walls of the naos or cella, consisting of vertical slabs of stone or marble equal in height to two or three of the horizontal courses which constitute the inner part of the wall.
40 Amp Electrical Range. Most of the newer Energy Star rated electric ranges require a 40 amp breaker. Eight AWG wires are required from the breaker to the outlet the range is plugged into. If aluminum wiring is used, it has to be installed into a CU/AL breaker.
For older homes, it was usually 60 amps and for the newer homes, it's usually 100 amp service. Most homes today have 100 amp service, but lately, the trend has been installing a higher amperage service, usually around 200 amps. All that means, is that you have that much power available, and of course, you're generally billed for what you use and not how large the available service is. Hope that helps, Cubby.
