This is a two-step question. First, to convert volt-amps into watts, multiply by the power factor. For a heating element like a convector or kettle the power factor is 1, but for a motor it might be 0.7. In the absence of information a power factor of 0.8 can be assumed.
Watts are a measure of power and the equivalent imperial measure is BTU per second or BTU per hour.
Alternatively a BTU is a measure of energy and the metric equivalent is watt-seconds or watt-hours. A BTU is 1055 watt-seconds (also known as joules).
A kilowatt-hour is equivalent to 3412 BTU.

How many amps are in 40 volt amps?
Multiply the vots by the amps to find the volt-amps. Or divide the volt-amps by the voltage to find the amps.
What is the amperage of a 40 va 240 volt by 24 volt control transformer?
The formula for amps is I = W/E. Amps = 40/240 = .17 primary amperage. For the secondary amperage I = W/E. Amps = 40/24 = 1.7 amps.

A 9000 BTU 240 volt air conditioner typically draws around 5-6 amps. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's specifications for the exact amperage rating.
How many amps are in 40 volt amps?
Multiply the vots by the amps to find the volt-amps. Or divide the volt-amps by the voltage to find the amps.
How many amps does a 7000 btu heater use?
A 7000 BTU heater typically draws around 6-7 amps when running on a standard 120-volt circuit. It's always important to check the specific amperage rating provided by the manufacturer in the product's documentation to ensure accurate information.
How many amps for 12000 btu?
The Amps means the volume of flow of electricity. The Amps depends on its BTU (British Thermal Unit). BTU is the unit to measure the energy that is consumed to perform some Air Conditioner. 12000 BTU Air conditioners uses 5 to 6 Amps. 18000 BTU Air conditioners uses 9 to 10 Amps. 12000 BTU air conditioners also called 1 Ton AIR CONDITIONER and 18000 BTU Air conditioners are called 1.5 Ton and so on. The 2 Ton or 24000 BTU Air conditioners use 15 Amps to work.
How many AMPs is 18000btu at 220volts?
A btu is a measure of energy, but 18,000 btu per hour is a power of 5.22 kW, which is 5220/220 amps, 24 amps.
Can 125 volt apartment run a 12000 BTU ac?
It is not recommended to run a 12000 BTU AC on a 125 volt outlet as the unit may draw more power than the outlet can safely handle. It is best to use a suitable power source to prevent damage to the appliance or potential fire hazards.
How many amps 2300 btu 240 volts?
Assuming we are talking about 2300 BTU per hour, take 2300 and divide by the number of BTUs per watt-hour, 3.414, giving 673 watts. Then divide this by the voltage, 240, giving 2.81 amps.
Can a 12000 btu window air conditioner run on a 110 wall out let?
if the nameplate says 120 volt, then yes. but might trip breaker if the circuit is overloaded and or only 15 amps
How do you convert 208 volt amps to 480 volt amps?
Add another leg of 120 to a three pole breaker.
How many volt amps in 12 volt battery?
Depends on the battery. It is listed on the battery as Cold Cranking Amps (CCA).
Does a 220 volt Air Conditioner cost less to operate than a 110 volt with the same btu?
They are both energy efficient units if they are of the newer thermostatically controlled units, generally a 220 volt system may draw less amps while setting on a lower temp range but again you should be able to view its electrical values at the time of shopping for one, ask for the efficiency rating charts for each unit.
What is the difference between amps and volt-amps?
Amps (A) measure electrical current flow, while volt-amps (VA) measure apparent power in an electrical circuit, which is the combination of both real power (measured in watts) and reactive power. Essentially, amps refer to current, while volt-amps refer to total power.
