The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.

How many watts in a 115 volt refrigerator?

How many Amps is the fridge pulling? Multiply the Amps by the 120V circuit you're plugging into and you'll get your Watts.


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


500 watts at 120 volts equals how many amps?

1000 watts at 9.5AMPS in 120 volt = 4.7 AMPS in 240 volt ..........Divide that by 2 according to the choice of voltage... 500 watts (120V) + 4.7Amp


How many watts does a 230 liter refrigerator use?

Look at the back of your fridge and find the plate that tells you how many amps it needs. Once you have Amps you multiply that number by the Volts coming out of your plug (usually 120v) and you will get Watts. So once more: Amps x Volts = Watts


How many watts are in 200 mA?

P=I x E Watts = Amps X Volts So, 200Ma or .2A X 120v would be 24W Substitute any voltage to get the corrected power (Watts).


600 watts requires how many amps?

It depends on the voltage source. watts = voltage * voltage / resistance and amps = voltage / resistance example 1: To produce 600W from a 120V source, you need a resistor of size 120V*120V/600W = 24 Ohm. This would pull 120V/24 Ohm = 5 amps. example 2: To produce 600W from a 240V source, you need a resistor of size 240V*240V/600W = 96 Ohm. This would pull 240V/96 Ohm = 2.5 amps.


How many amps does 3000 watts pull?

Using the equation Volts X Amps = Watts, you can take 3000 watts / Volts to get your answer: 3000W/240V = 12.5A or 3000W/120V = 25A So, at 240 volts you will use 12.5 amps for 3000 watts of power. Or at 120 volts you will use 25 watts.


How many watts does it take to run a heat mat?

I don't know what exactly you mean by a "heat mat", but your question is kind of backwards. You don't run an electrical device *with* watts. You run them to *produce* watts (watts of light, watts of heat, watts of sound, etc). I believe the thing you are really asking is how many amps are required to run your device. As an example, consider a "1500 Watt heater" that is made to be plugged into a typical wall outlet in your home. The voltage in the wall is 120V, and the heater will produce 1500 watts of heat when plugged into that 120V. To calculate the amps, you divide the watts by the voltage. 1500W / 120V = 12.5A


How many watts in a amp?

There are zero amps in a watt. I = W/E. W = A x V. It depends on how many volts there are. Since watts is amps times volts, amps is watts divided by volts. If you had a 120V circuit with 1 watt, there would be 1/120, or 0.00833 amps flowing in that circuit Note: This is the resistive answer, with a power factor of 1. For reactive loads, things change, but the basic question is answered.


How many watts are in 15 vamps?

Your question is rather like asking, 'How many newtons are there in 15 metres?'! The ampere measures electric current, while the volt measures potential difference -two completely-different quantities!
