A:Answer Samsung is the only source for exact information like this, but here is the best I can do.
[Zero electrical power is NECESSARY to use the top burners]
For full operation his range requires 120 VAC, but uses very little electrical power (even though the installation instructions specify a 20 Ampere 120 VAC circuit--likely a building code requirement).
There are only a few components that require electrical power (no electrical power is needed to use the top burners--just a match or manual sparking device):
1. Solenoid that locks oven door during self cleaning
2. ignition system for top burners
3. computer control system (mainly for oven)
4. fan (only if using convection oven setting)
5. oven light.
So the electric power consumed depends on the features used.
At a minimum, using only the stove top burners with manual ignition, zero electrical power is consumed.
To use the oven while keeping the electrical load low, cut the oven light off, don't use the convection oven setting, and don't use self cleaning, then the electric power needed is LIKELY under 2 amperes @ 120 VAC,
The oven light might use 50 watts when on, the fan maybe the same, the solenoid (only intermittent use-- lock/unlock).
And, of course, if you don't need the clock, just cut off the power (requires installation of a wall switch controlling the electrical outlet used) when not cooking!
You may be able to gather additional information yourself from the maintenance manual and replace parts specifications (lamp wattage, fan motor specs, spark ignition specs).
Hope this helps.
