To calculate horsepower, you can use the formula: Horsepower = (Volts x Amps x Efficiency) / 746. Using 110 volts and 15 amps, and assuming 90% efficiency, the formula would be: (110 x 15 x 0.9) / 746 = 1.49 horsepower.
It's the amps that are controlled by the breaker not the volts. You can have a 600 volt 15 amp breaker, you can have a 347 volt 15 amp breaker. The breaker will trip when you exceed 15 AMPS.
To find the amperage, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts/Volts. Plugging in the values, you get Amps = 1800 Watts / 110 Volts ≈ 16.36 Amps.
Residential power is usually 115 volts to 120 volts and will power a 15 amp air conditioner. If it is on a 15 amp breaker it may heat up the breaker and cause it to trip if it runs continuously in which case you would need to move it to a 20 amp circuit.A 20 amp circuit will handle 18 amps continuously without overheating the breaker and making it trip. A 15 amp circuit can handle 12 amps continuously without over heating the breaker.You cannot simply replace the 15 amp breaker with a 20 amp breaker because the 15 amp circuit uses smaller wire which might overheat.The term 110 is an old one. Most home power now is at least 115 volts.
Yes, it can.
That depends on the voltage you use. If there are 120 volts, the power equals voltage times amperage. 120 volts times 15 amps = 1800 watts. Cheers ebs

12 ga, 20 amp. 14 ga, 15 amp. 16 ga, 10 amp.
No. At 125 volts, the same 15 amp current results in 10 times as much power. Ohm's Law states that amps x volts = power.

In Norway it is 230 Volts, 16-25 amp, 60 Hz, grounded In rest of Europe it is 110 Volts 10-15 amps, 50 Hz, probably grounded too.
Must know two parts of the equation before the other can be answered. However, assuming there is 110vac applied, then the answer would be about 1650w.The conversion of Amps to Watts is governed by the equation Watts = Amps x VoltsFor example 1 amp * 110 volts = 110 watts

I don't understand the question, but if you want to make the line into a 20amp instead of 15amp, you just install a 20amp breaker, but remember,the wire must be 12ga wire to be connected to a 20amp breaker.
It depends on the amperage of the circuit breaker. For a typical 15 amp circuit breaker, you can run up to 12 outlets or receptacles. However, it is recommended to consult a qualified electrician to determine the appropriate number of outlets based on the specific electrical load requirements of the devices being used.
Most residential service in USA has both. In the USA 110 to 120 volts is a given and it would be very unusual not to have 220 to 240 volts. It can be easily tested at main panel with a volt meter. Or as an alternative call your power company.
