It doesn't. Assuming the load stays constant when you reduce voltage you reduce current. Power is derived by multiplying current x voltage. If they are both going down power must decrease.

How many ampere in one hp?

There are 746 watts in 1 HP. Watts = amps x volts. It depends on the voltage rating of the motor. Amps = 746/volts = ? need voltage.


How do you calculate kva from amps?

At what voltage? If you know the voltage then, to get the amps those kilovolt-amps contain, you simply divide the kilovolt-amps by the voltage.


How many KVA is 62 amps?

At what voltage? When you know the voltage then, to get the amps those kilovolt-amps contain, you simply divide the kilovolt-amps by the voltage.


How are volts ohms and watts affected by each other?

For a fixed resistance (ohms) current increases as voltage increases. Since Watts equals Volts x Amps x Power Factor then Watts would increase as voltage increases. The resistance would usually be fixed, but if you had a variable load resistance as the resistance decreased and the voltage remained constant, the current would increase and watts would therefore increase. Watts = Volts x Amps x Power Factor Volts = Amps x Ohms Power Factor is 1 for a resistive load.


What happens to electrical current and voltage in a parallel circuit as you add more bulbs?

Voltage remains constant; current increases.


What happens to zener current after the breakdown voltage is reached?

After breakdown voltage is reached in a zener diode the current increases drastically.


What happens to amps when you increase the resistance of a circuit?

If you don't change the voltage between the ends of the circuit,then higher resistance in the circuit means lower current (amps).


What happens to current flow if circuit resistance increases and voltage remains the same?

nothing


If the excitation of generator changes what happens to the terminal voltage?

By Decreasing the excitation voltage the terminal voltage will decrease and similarly by increasing the excitation voltages the terminal voltage will also increases.


You were given aload 2500 watts how much it draw amps?

Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps = Watts/Voltage. Amps = 2500/apply voltage here.


What happens to the current in a device if the resistance of the device increases and the voltage difference stays the same?

If resistance increases and voltage stays the same, then current decreases. Ohm's Law: Current equals Voltage divided by Resistance.


What happens to the power in a circuit as the current increases?

P=VI If current (I) increases then P will increase proportionally. That is, assuming that voltage (V) remains constant. If voltage decreases and current increases or vice versa, proportionally then P will remain the same.
