Watts are the product of multiplying volts times amps.
There are zero kilowatts in amps. A voltage value has to be supplied before an answer can be given. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts = 12000/Volts. Alternatively, you could state the resistance, from which the amps are determined from P/R = I2.
The V stands for volts and A is amps. If for example you have a 12kVA device and are running off a voltage of 120 volts then Amps = 12000/120 = 100. You then use the calculated amps in a wire size table to get the correct size.
There are zero amps in 50 watts. The equation for amperage is, I W/E. Amps = Watts / Volts. As you can see if there is no voltage stated the amperage can not be calculated.
In general, multiply the (rms) current by the (rms) voltage to get the power. If the voltage to the appliance is 120 Volts, then the power of 4.2 Amps is 504 Watts. If the voltage is 240 Volts, then 1008 Watts. Note: To be technically accurate, you must also multiply the cosine of the phase-angle between current and voltage. For any typical appliance, this is 1 and can be ignored. <<>> There are zero watts in 4.2 amps. Watts = Amps x Volts. Without a voltage stated the wattage can not be calculated.
At 120 volts it will pull 4.166 amps. At 240 volts it will pull 2.08 amps.

volts X amps
Amps and volts are two separate parts of power measurement and do not convert into each other. Multiplying amps times volts will give you the measurement of wattage.
Power is calculated by multiplying Volts x Amps, hence 60 Volts and 2 Amps will give 120 Watts. Energy is Power over a length of time. So if you use this device for say 2 hours you will consume 240 Watt Hours of Energy.
The conversion of watts to amps at a fixed voltage is governed by the equation Amps = Watts/Volts for example 12 watts/12 volts = 1 amp for a US example, a food mixer with a 400 watt motor on a 120 volt supply 400/120 = 3.33amps, fit a 5amp fuse
To calculate watts, you need to multiply the voltage (in volts) by the current (in amps). For the 208 volts, 8 amps heating element: Watts = 208 volts * 8 amps = 1664 watts For the 110 volts, 8 amps heating element: Watts = 110 volts * 8 amps = 880 watts
If the wattage of a load is known then the current can be calculated. Watts equals amps times volts. You would use the following formula, Amps = Watts/Volts.
V/R = I meaning, Voltage (in volts) divided by Resistance (in Ohms) equals Current (in Amperes, a.k.a. Amps
Using Ohms law, the resistance can be calculated by using the following formulas. R = Watts/Amps (squared). R = Volts (squared)/Watts. R = Volts/Amps.
There are zero kilowatts in amps. A voltage value has to be supplied before an answer can be given. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts = 12000/Volts. Alternatively, you could state the resistance, from which the amps are determined from P/R = I2.
Specifically, Volts and Amps would be called VA or volt amps, as in the rating of a transformer, but it is loosely referred to as Watts. In DC theory, Volts mulitplied by Amps equals Watts. In AC theory, that same equation exists but it includes power factor. If the power factor given is 1 (100%), then Volts mulitplied by Amps multiplied by Power Factor of 1 equals your Watts.
Watts is determined by multiplying amps (found on tag with serial number or on data plate on compressor) by volts (example 115 volts times 9 amps= 1035 watts)
