What is the device for amps?

An electrical device may draw amps, but there is not a device that equates to amps. Amperes are the measure of current flow in a circuit.


If an electrical device has a resistance of 2000 ohms what will be the current at 150v?

0.075 amps


How do you find the current draw of an electrical circuit if you do not know the voltage and wattage of the device?

Basically if you know the Voltage supply and the power used by an appliance then you use the formula for power which is Power = Volts x Amps. Rearrange so Amps (current) = Power / Volts If power was 2400 Watts and Volts was 240 the Current would be 2400 / 240 = 10 Amps


What is the formula for power in terms of amperes?

Electrical power = current x voltage Current is in amps


Is power the product of voltage and current?

Yes, electrical power in Watts is volts x amps


What is a 8a fuse?

A device that will protect an electrical circuit from overload up to a current flow of 8 amps


What is a current used for?

A current transformer is an electrical device which is used to transform high current to a lower standardised current for control equipment used to messure current(amps)


25 amps is how many kw?

Amps is a measurement of current. Watts (or kilowatts) is a measure of power. To get the power from the current, you have to know the electrical potential or volts used to produce the current. Amps × Volts = Watts (or Current × Electrical Potential = Power). Incidentally, a kilowatt is 1000 watts, so you'll have to divide your answer by 1000. e.g. if your volts is 40, then 25 amps × 40 volts = 1000 watts. 1000 watts (divided by 1000) is 1kw or kilowatt.


What is meaured in amps?

The electrical current in a circuit is measured in amps.


What are electrical amps?

Amps is short for ampere, a unit for current.


Is 8 amps equals 1.5hp?

You can't compare that. Ampere is a unit of electrical current; horse power is a unit of power.


What is a tosters power used or current drawn?

Depends on the model, usually there is a information plate on the device showing power consumption in watts, The theoretical current flow can be estimated from : I (current - amps) = Power (watts) / Voltage (volts). > So if you have a 1000 watt toaster @ 230 volts supply, the current in amps = 1000 / 230 = 4.35 amps.
