The terminology for VAC is Voltage Alternating Current. As for big watts, it is not electrical terminology, it could be a way of expressing maximum permitted wattage.
Watts is the product of amps times volts. W = A x V.

How many watts is light bulb 120 VAC 60Hz 300mA?
Multiply the current by the voltage: 120 times 0.3, which is 40 watts.
How many watts is 6.5 amps and 110 vac?
The formula you are looking for is W = A x V.
How many watts and romex gauge is safe for a 15amp breaker?
Assuming 120 VAC in a residence maximum watts = 15 x 120 = 1800 Watts. For a continuous load you can support 1440 watts which is 80& of maximum. You need 14 AWG gauge wire.
How many amps will a 230 vac 3500 watts heater draw?
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amperage (A) = Watts (W) / Voltage (V). In this case, the heater draws 3500 watts and operates at 230 volts. So, the amperage will be approximately 15.22 amps.
How many watts does a CFL bulb use?
The answer to this is country-specific. In the United States: Residential 120 VAC. Commercial also uses 277 VAC Elsewhere in the world: 220 volts to 260 volts, most frequently 230-240 volts AC.
How many amps does a 2500 watt inverter use?
If we assume that the inverter is used in your car on 12 Volts DC and you are creating 120 VAC; and the 2500 watts refers to the AC side of inverter then for a resistive load Amps = Watts / Volts = 2500/120.
How big is an amp?
size depends on the watts..-Shocker
How many watt does a 60 watt light bulb use if turn it on and off?
If it is an incandescent light bulb (Gives off heat too hot to touch) it consumes 60 Watts when on and 0 watts when Off. When on it draws about 1/2 amp at 120 VAC.
How many amps are 60 watts?
Watts = Amps x Volts x Power Factor If you are talking about a light bulb or similar 60 watt device at 120 VAC the answer is 1/2 amp using standard household voltage and a power factor of 1.
What is the wattage measured in?
Watts. Big wattage is measured in kilowatts (watts x 1000).CommentThe clue is in the name!
How do you accelarate getting watts in the pokewalker?
You can get more watts on the pokewalker by putting it in a big truck and just keep moving it. Tape it on it.
How many watts equal one ampere?
Watts = Amps x Voltage x Power Factor Hence to compute watts you need to know voltage and power factor. If you have a pure resistive load like a light bulb power factor = 1 and can thus be ignored. If you are asking about residential power, the voltage is 120 VAC so the computation is now trivial.
