How much current does 60 watts Operated at 480 volts have?

Assuming resistive load, 0.125 amps.


How much watts are in calculators?

Watts = Amps x volts. What is the current draw and voltage of the calculator.


How much current must flow to carry 240 watts at 120 volts?

240 watts at 120 volts requires 2 amperes. Power = voltage * current


How much current flows through a standard 100 watt floodlight when operated at its designed voltage of 120V?

To get Watts you multiply Amps x Volts. So in your case you just do some reverse math and divide the Watts by the volts and you get your amperage. so 100/120=0.83 Amps


An alternator provides 20 A of a peak current at 100 volts peak AC to a resistive electric heater How much heating power is delivered to the load?

Watts = Amps * Volts Watts = 20 amps * 100 Volts Watts = 2000 2,000 Watts or 2k Watts

A 60 Watt appliance is plugged into a 120 Volt AC outlet How much current is the appliance drawing when it is turned on?

Amps (current) times volts = watts. so watts divided by volts = current (Amps). i.e.- 0.5 Amps.


How much amperage does a CFL draw?

Often CFLs are marked with the current. If not, find out the watts and the volts. Divide the watts by the volts to find the current, then double the current because the power factor could be as low as 0.5 with CFLs. That will tell you a safe value to use for the current when planning the wiring.

What is 1.5amps 115 volts equal to in watts?

There really is no fixed answer. Amps are a measure of current, while watts are a measure of work. To get the answer, you need to know either how many volts you are dealing with, or how much resistance; the relationship is W= V*I (where I is the current in amps). That said, for a typical 120 volt household current, the number of watts would be 180.


115volts are how many watts?

That's like asking: How much time does it take to go 15 MPH? It depends on at least one other factor. In your case, you cannot know watts unless you know voltage and current or resistance (from which you could derive current, because E = I x R). Once you know the current drop across the 15 volts, you can multiply I x E and get P, i.e., amps times volts equals watts.


How much heat is generated by 1 amp?

The heat generated by an electric current is in watts, Current x volts. So current alone is not enough to define it. By Ohms Law, Volts = Current x Resistance, so another way of expressing watts is (Current squared) x Resistance. If you know the current andthe resistance you can get the wattage, which will give you the heat generated.
