If you know the power rating of an appliance and the voltage of the line it is attached to you can you calculate the current used by the appliance?

If I understood your question correctly, 'If you know the power rating of an appliance and the voltage of the line it is attached to, can you calculate the current used by the appliance?' You are looking for this equation: I = Current (Amps) P = Power Rating (Watts) V = Voltage (Volts) I = P/V This equation is useful when calculating the fuse rating for an appliance. For example, and appliance rated at 2400 watts, supplied with 240 volts has a 10 amp maximum. I = 2400/240 however, when it comes to paying for electricity, the energy is measured in units, which can be found using the equation: P = Power (kW) t = Time (Hours) Energy Used (Units) = Pt for example, an appliance rated at 2 kW used for 3 hours, uses 6 units of energy. Units = 2*3
