How to convert watts into amps
To convert watts to amps, you can follow these steps:
- Gather Information:
- Power (Watts): This is the amount of electrical power used or produced.
- Voltage (Volts): This is the electrical potential difference.
- Use the Formula:
- Amps can be found using the formula: “Amps = Power (Watts) divided by Voltage (Volts).”
- Perform the Calculation:
- Divide the power in watts by the voltage in volts.
- Result:
- The result will represent the current in the electrical circuit, measured in amperes (amps).
Example
For example, if you have a device that uses 500 watts and operates at 230 volts, you can find the current it draws by dividing 500 watts by 230 volts.
- 500 W / 230 V = 2.17 A
This calculation will give you the current in amps that the device draws from the electrical supply.
