2.4m BTU -that's a fair old tonnage!
(Just to confuse things further ;-)

240,0000 btu/hr = 200 TR
2OO TR DIVIDED BY 0.2845 = 702.98 KW

Re: Refrigerant load to elect load
I use such, however, a very, very rough conversion: 1000 W electrical = 3000 W heat = 9000 Btu (also "heat", of course), simply, a mnemonic: 1-3-9, and vice versa.

This concerning the choice of a comp for an AC. I believe, I have not confused the numbers unforgivably.
