Volt/amperes(watts) of your kitchen devices and amperes going through the circuit

I want to practice degrading wires for class and would like some numbers to work with, so if you guys could tell me how many watts or volt/amperes your kitchen devices(microwave, toaster, refrigerator etc) are rated at and how many amps the outlets carry(if you’re American or Canadian it’s most likely 120, if you’re European it’s most likely 240, I don’t know about the rest of the world) it would be well appreciated

My kitchen has 8 20 amp, 120v non dedicated circuits, with a separate 240v 50amp circuit for each of the ovens (2), and separate 120v 20 amp for the dishwashers (2), a 240v 100amp circuit for the point-of-use electric water heater and a 120v 20 amp circuit for the boost water heater, 2 dedicated 120v 20 amp circuits for the refrigerator and freezer, 3 120v circuits for the sink disposal units (3 sinks) ... and two 240v 50 amp circuits for the stoves

Think I have it all ... the kitchen has a dedicated 225 amp circuit breaker box ... with 40 slots

Ceiling lighting is 12/24v, with 12 gauge wires and e26 fixtures, running LED lights without transformers.

All wiring to the 120v circuits is 10 gauge

It is lower gauge for the 240v circuits.

The house has a 800 amp service entry.
