Πώς να υπολογίσετε το Amps to Watts

Τι είναι το Amps to Watts;

An amps to watts converter calculates electrical power from current and voltage. Used to determine the wattage of appliances and the capacity needed from a power source.

Τύπος

W (DC) = A × V; W (AC) = A × V × PF
A
Current (A) — Electrical current in amperes
V
Voltage (V) — Electrical potential in volts
W
Power (W) — Electrical power in watts
PF
Power factor ((dimensionless)) — For AC loads; typically 0.8–1.0

Οδηγός βήμα προς βήμα

  1. 1Watts = Amps × Volts (DC)
  2. 2Watts = Amps × Volts × Power Factor (AC)
  3. 3Power factor for motors is typically 0.8–0.95
  4. 4Standard voltages: 120V US, 230V EU, 240V UK

Worked Examples

Εισαγωγή

3,120 watts (standard UK plug max)
Εισαγωγή
20 amps at 120V
Αποτέλεσμα
2,400 watts (US circuit)
Εισαγωγή
32 amps at 240V
Αποτέλεσμα
7,680 watts (EV charger)

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate watts from amps?

Multiply amps by volts. In AC, also multiply by power factor. Example: 10 A × 240 V = 2,400 W.

Why does my kettle pull more amps than my TV?

The kettle uses more power (watts). At the same voltage, higher wattage means higher amps. Ohm's law: W = V × A.

What's a safe amperage for a standard outlet?

In the US, 15–20 A circuit breakers are standard, supporting 1,800–2,400 W at 120 V. In UK, 13 A plugs support 3,120 W at 240 V.
