17.60amperes what is the equivalent in horsepower?

That will depend on the voltage together with the amperage. Multiply voltage times amperage to get the watts. There are about 746 watts to one horsepower. A 220 volt circuit at 17.60 amps would be about 5.2 horsepower.


What is the equivalent of voltage times ampere?

Volt Amperes is a measure of power; it is the vector sum of the real (in watts) and reactive (in vars) power.


How many amps do you need for 2 120 volt lights?

Need to know the wattage to work out the amperage


How do you convert 24 volt trailer lights to 12 volt?

To convert 24 volt trailer lights to 12 volt, you will need to install a voltage regulator or resistor in the circuit to reduce the voltage to 12 volts. Alternatively, you can also replace the 24 volt lights with 12 volt lights designed for trailers.


12 volt 9.6va what does this mean in amps?

9.6va (or watts) divided by 12Volts = 0.8 amps


Will a 240 volt string of Christmas lights work on a 110 volt socket?

No, a 240 volt string of Christmas lights is designed to be used with a 240 volt socket. Plugging it into a 110 volt socket may damage the lights and pose a safety hazard. Be sure to always use lights with the correct voltage rating.


How many watts is 5 amps?

600 This depends on the voltage Voltage x Amps = Watts ex. At 120 volts 5 amps WILL BE 600 watts But at 110 Volts (Some house voltage), it will be 550 watts And at 277 Volt (commercial-Industrial Voltage), it would be 1385 Watts If you know Watts (Like a 75w Incandescent Lamp) and the Voltage: Watts / Volts = Amps So 75w / 120v = 0.625a The last would be Watts / Amps = Volts 600w / 5a = 120v


How many watts does a 3 amps use in America?

On a 120 volt supply, up to 360 watts. On a 240 volt supply, up to 720 watts.


4 ohms equals how many watts?

Ohms does not equal watts. You need to know what voltage is across the resistor to determine how many watts it is drawing or how many watts the resistor should be rated for.Power is the voltage across the resistor SQUARED divided by the resistance. If this 4 ohm resistor has 12 volts across it then the watts power is (12 x 12) / 4 = 36 watts.1 Watt equals 1 Volt times 1 Amp.


125 amps is how many watts?

Depends on the voltage output, in a 12 Volt system 12.5 Amps equals 150 Watts, the equation is, (Amps x Volts)= Watts <<>> 12.5 amps is zero watts. Watts is the product of amps x volts. Without the voltage value an answer can not be given.


How do you install 12 volt lights on 48 volt cart?

In order to install 12 volt lights on a 48 volt cart, you will need to use a voltage reducer to step down the voltage from 48 volts to 12 volts. This will allow the lights to operate properly without getting damaged. You can connect the lights to the 12 volt output of the voltage reducer and follow the wiring instructions provided with the reducer for proper installation. Be sure to follow all safety precautions and consult a professional if needed.


What is the relationship between a volt an amp and a watt?

A volt is the unit of electric potential, an amp is the unit of electric current, and a watt is the unit of power. The relationship between them is described by the equation: Power (in watts) = Voltage (in volts) x Current (in amps).
