To convert watts into amperes you divide the circuit voltage into the watts. Amps = Watts/Volts.

<<>>

Converting Watts to Amps

The conversion of Watts to Amps is governed by the equation Amps = Watts/Volts

For example 12 watts/12 volts = 1 amp

Converting Amps to Watts

The conversion of Amps to Watts is governed by the equation Watts = Amps x Volts

For example 1 amp * 110 volts = 110 watts

Converting Watts to Volts

The conversion of Watts to Volts is governed by the equation Volts = Watts/Amps

For example 100 watts/10 amps = 10 volts

Converting Volts to Watts

The conversion of Volts to Watts is governed by the equation Watts = Amps x Volts

For example 1.5 amps * 12 volts = 18 watts

Converting Volts to Amps at fixed wattage

The conversion of Volts to Amps is governed by the equations Amps = Watts/Volts

For example 120 watts/110 volts = 1.09 amps

Converting Amps to Volts at fixed wattage

The conversion of Amps to Volts is governed by the equation Volts = Watts/Amps

For Example, 48 watts / 12 Amps = 4 Volts

Explanation

Amps are how many electrons flow past a certain point per second. Volts is a measure of how much force that each electron is under. Think of water in a hose. A gallon a minute (think amps) just dribbles out if it is under low pressure (think low voltage). But if you restrict the end of the hose, letting the pressure build up, the water can have more power (like watts), even though it is still only one gallon a minute. In fact the power can grow enormous as the pressure builds, to the point that a water knife can cut a sheet of glass. In the same manner as the voltage is increased a small amount of current can turn into a lot of watts.

How do you solve watts to amperes?

Amps = Watts/Volts, or Amps = Sq Root of Watts/Resistance.


How many watts is 8.6 amperes?

To calculate the total power consumption in watts, you can multiply the current in amperes by the voltage in volts. If the voltage is not known, you cannot directly convert amperes to watts.


What is 0.011 in converting watts to amperes?

To convert watts to amps a voltage value must be given. Amps = Watts/Volts. Amps = .011/Volts.


How many amp in 1.25 hp?

To answer this question a voltage is needed. 1 HP = 746 Watts. Amps = Watts/Volts.


How you find ups watts?

It is expressed in Volt-Amperes not Watts.


How many volts can you get from 260 watts?

It depends on how many amperes there are. If you have 1 amperes, then you get 260 watts. If you have 260 amperes, then you have 67,600 watts. If you have 0.001 amperes, then you have 0.26 watts. Its just watts = volts times amperes. Of course, the limiting factor is the available power behind the 260 volts, but you did not say anything about that.


What are the watts on a 1999 Ford Escort?

Volts X amperes = watts.


Do amperes have more power than watts?

You can't really compare that. Amperes and watts measure completely different things. On the other hand, any time there are amperes, there are also watts. The relationship is:P = I^2 x R or in units: watts = amperes squared x resistance

How to convert ampere if 'X' watt of electrical equipments at 'Y' volt consumes per hour?

You can convert amperes by using the formula: Amperes = Watts / Volts. To find out how much current 'X' watt of electrical equipment at 'Y' volt consumes per hour, you would need to divide the wattage by the voltage to get the amperes, and then also consider the duration of the consumption in hours.


How many amps is 55kw at 460 volts?

To calculate the amperage, use the formula: Amperes = Watts / Volts. In this case, 55 kW is 55,000 watts. So, Amperes = 55,000 watts / 460 volts ≈ 119.57 amps.
