An 85 watt fan motor, working on ac, would probably have a power factor of about 0.75 so would draw 113 VA. The estimated current would be 1 amp on a 120 v supply or ½ amp on a 240 vsupply.

To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amperage (A) = Power (W) / Voltage (V). If you know the voltage the fan motor operates at (e.g., 120V), you can divide 85 watts by the voltage to find the amperage. In this case, if the voltage is 120V, then the amperage would be approximately 0.71 A.
The wattage of an electric fan can vary depending on its size and motor efficiency. On average, a typical electric fan can consume anywhere from 40 to 60 watts when operating at its highest speed.
As many as the designer likes, but the average table fan uses about 20 watts.
Generally, a floor fan uses 90 watts to employ itself.
That will depend on the specific fan.
The average household fan used in US or Canada is about 35-50 watts.
