A part of it The two terms are not directly related to each other. Watts or power is the actual energy your appliances utilize to operate. Amps are the current or flow of electrons between two points. Kilowatts are watts x1000. So for example 1000 watts is one kilowatt. Watts are derived from ohms law or a part of it anyway. P is v.I or amps times volts equals watts. A ten amp breaker at 120 volts in your electrical panel has a potential of 1200 watts or 1.2 kilowatts.
