The cooling capacity of an air conditioner is typically measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs) per hour rather than in tons. However, assuming you are referring to a standard residential air conditioner, a 2-ton air conditioner is equivalent to a cooling capacity of approximately 24,000 BTUs per hour.
The amperage (amps) required by an air conditioner depends on various factors, including the specific model and efficiency rating. In general, air conditioners can range from around 15 amps to 50 amps or more, depending on their size and specifications. It is important to note that air conditioners may have different amperage requirements for startup (compressor and fan motors) versus normal operation (compressor running).
To determine the exact amperage of a 2-ton air conditioner, you would need to refer to the manufacturer's specifications or consult the unit's nameplate, which provides information about the electrical requirements.
