You are confusing the units.
To obtain amps from watts a voltage must be given.
Use the formula: energy = power x time If energy is in watts and time is in hours, power will be in watt-hours. Divide that by 1000 to get kWh. Alternately, you can convert watt to kilowatt before doing the multiplication - in that case, kilowatt x hours = kilowatt-hours.
1 kilowatt is equal to 1,000 watts, so a 100 watt bulb uses .1 kilowatt. Technically, your home or business meter base measures kilowatt hours, meaning that it measures both the kilowatts and the amount of time. If you turn on 10 100 watt bulbs for 1 second, that would be a kilowatt, but the amount of power use would be insignificant. So... To calculate the kilowatt hours: .1 kilowatts (from above, knowing the energy use of the bulb) Multiplied by 24 hours in a day Multiplied by 30 days... .1(kilowatts) * 24(hours)* 30(hours in a day) = 72 kilowatt hours
No, there are 24 hours a day
If you mean "how many hours are IN one day", then there are 24 hours in a day.
Oh, honey, 500VA is equal to 500 watts. VA stands for volt-amps, which is the apparent power in an electrical circuit, while watts are the real power. So, in this case, they're one and the same. Hope that lights up your day!
The amount of power a standby generator should put out to maintain the avg. US household for a one day is 20 watts system. This a standard amount watts to power you home and today they more selection in watts to power the house more than one day.
To calculate the watts on your electricity bill, you would need to look at the wattage of each electrical device in your home (which can usually be found on the device itself or in the user manual) and the number of hours each device is used per day. Multiply the wattage by the number of hours used per day to calculate the watt-hours for each device, then sum all the watt-hours to get the total watts consumed over a billing cycle.
To obtain amps from watts a voltage must be given.
(600 watts) x (12 hours per day) = 7.2 kilowatt-hours per day
To compute the electrical consumption of a device, you need to know the power rating of the device in watts and the duration of use in hours. The formula is Power (in watts) x Time (in hours) = Energy consumption (in watt-hours or kilowatt-hours). You can use this information to estimate the cost of running the device by multiplying the energy consumption by your electricity rate.
To calculate the electricity produced in one day, you would need to multiply the power output of the source (in watts) by the number of hours the source is operational in one day (typically 24 hours). This will give you the total energy produced in watt-hours (Wh) for that day. You can convert this to kilowatt-hours (kWh) by dividing by 1,000.
40 W is the power in this case. Whether you have it on a second, or 24 hours, the power will always be 40 W. Now, if it is actually the energy you want to calculate, multiply the power by the time to get the energy. In units: watts x seconds = joules or: kilowatts x hours = kWh
Assuming a standard voltage of 120V, a 150 amp panel can handle a maximum of 18,000 watts per hour (150 amps x 120V). To calculate the daily usage, you would multiply this by 24 hours in a day, resulting in 432,000 watt-hours or 432 kilowatt-hours per day.
The watts listed on a light bulb indicate the amount of power it consumes per hour. To calculate the energy usage over a year, you would multiply the wattage by the number of hours the bulb is typically used per day, then by 365 days in a year.
The power output of a solar panel depends on its efficiency, size, location, and weather conditions. On average, a 100-watt solar panel can generate around 400-500 watt-hours of electricity per day in a sunny location.
A standard 4 foot baseboard heat will consume 1000 watts/1Kilowatt. So if you could calculate how many hours per day/week/month you can multiply the hours by power consumption and getKWh(Kilowatt Hours) per month.
