If you use this formula W = Amps x Volts you will not need any tools. Using equipment nameplates will give you both values. If nameplates are inaccessible then you need a volt meter and an amp meter to obtain these values.

What is 50VA?
50 VA means about 50 watts. Transformers usually use VA instead of watts because a transformer has very little wasted power, and watts measure power. A 50 va transformer that is 120v. on the primary side will use about .41 amps at 120 volts. On the secondary side, (if it's 24 volts) it will support about 2.08 amps.

Watts are used to measure power, whereas volts are used to measure potential difference. These are two different quantities, and you cannot convert one into another any more than you can convert kilometres to kilograms.
Are electric baseboard heaters efficient?
Amps and Watts measure different things. An Amp is a measure of electrical current and a Watt is a measure of Power. Which ever device draws the higher amperage will be the one that uses more electricity! Hence the 240 watt heater draw less amps even though it uses more watts: Volts Watts/Electical Current Amps/Power example heater 240 volt draws 2000/1000 watts - but uses 8.3/4.2 amps example heater 120 volt draws 1500/750 watts - but uses 12.5/6.3 amps
