To calculate the amperage, you need to know the resistance in the circuit. Amperage is calculated using Ohm's Law: Amperage (A) = Voltage (V) / Resistance (R). Without knowing the resistance, we cannot determine the amperage.

The equation that you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts / Volts.
On a 15 amp breaker, you can draw up to 120 volts in a standard residential circuit. The voltage remains constant at 120 volts, but the amperage capacity is what is limited by the 15 amp breaker.
Power (in watts) is equal to voltage (in volts) multiplied by current (in amperes). Therefore, the number of watts in one amp depends on the voltage. For example, at 120 volts, one amp is equal to 120 watts.
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amperage = Watts / Volts. Thus, for 10,000 watts at 240 volts, the amperage would be 41.67 Amps.
