ReneIt 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.

0.8 megawatts 600 Volts equals how many amps?
To calculate the amperage, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, 0.8 megawatts is equal to 800,000 watts. So, Amps = 800,000 watts / 600 volts, which equals approximately 1333.33 amps.
How many heaters can you install with amps V?
Five amps is 600 watts on 120 v and 1200 watts on 240 v.
1 A microwave oven uses a 115 V electrical source and produces 600 Watts of power How many amps does it require?
To find the amperage, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, 600 Watts / 115 Volts = approximately 5.22 Amps. So, the microwave oven requires approximately 5.22 Amps of current.
How many amps needed for a 600 watt floodlight?
If you are using a 120V power supply, a 600 watt floodlight will draw 5 amps of current (600 watts ÷ 120 volts = 5 amps). Remember to always check the specific electrical requirements of your floodlight to ensure the correct amperage.
What is least expensive to run a heater with 750 watts and 7.1 amps or 600 watts and 12.5 amps?
The heater with 750 watts and 7.1 amps is less expensive to run. This is because it has a lower amperage, meaning it requires less electric current to operate. The 600-watt heater with 12.5 amps requires a higher electric current, which could translate to higher electricity costs.
