When the manufacturers refer to a 1000 watt oven they usually mean heat into food. The efficiency of ovens vary but it is quite common that a 1000 watt would consume 2000 watts from the mains. Watts = Amps X Volts so at 120V this would be 16.67 amps. But to be more accurate you need to find the actual input power of the oven.

The answer is 8.33. To figure AMPS divide WATTs by VOLTs. In this case, 1,000 ÷ 120 = 8.33.

The equation that you are looking for is I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts.
