What else can I help you with?
Does The higher the amperage equal more electrical power?
Not necessarily. Amperage (current) is just one component of electrical power. Power is the product of voltage and current. To calculate power, you need both voltage and amperage.
Why do electrical appliances need to be plugged into the wall?
Because the power needed to make them work is delivered by a national 'grid' of electrical cables. There is no way to actually transmit power to an appliance through the air. It must be deilvered by cables.
If I get voltage adapters going from the US to the UK do I need to worry about the voltage on my heating tools for a blow dryer curling wand etc?

What is the higher power 12 amps or 15.6 volts?
Neither amperes nor volts is the same as watts (power), so the question "what is the higher power" does not make sense.Amperes is electrical current flow, in coulombs per second.Volts is electrical potential, in joules per coulomb.Watts is electrical power, in joules per second, which is also amperes times volts.
Why do you need 20 AMP power outlet?
A 20 amp power outlet is needed for devices or appliances that require more electrical current to operate safely and efficiently. These outlets are designed to handle higher power loads and reduce the risk of overheating or overloading a circuit, which can help prevent electrical fires.

Exact difference between electrical and electronics?
the main diffrent between electrical and electronics is Electrical is study of electriccity and electronics is study of the electical or databus controlle circuit. All machine need electrical Power. how much power it need? which electrical contolled it need? that study in Electrical but in Electronics how much power we need? and how to create that power for that we use some electronics circuit. that sutdy i electonics. It is a simple diffrent between electrical and elecronics. ANSWER: The difference is the study of electrons behavior. Electrical main concern is electrons flow. Electronics is a study of electrons emission.
Can I use an adaptor that has output of 12 volts 1000 ma to replace an adaptor has 12 volt 3 amps?
No, Your original adaptor has an output of 3 amps or 3000 ma. As you can see, the one you want to use for a replacement adaptor only has 1000 ma output, one third of the current capacity that you need.
