Remember this simple equation.

amps x volts = watts

so

1.4 amps x 120 volts = 168 watts

The formula to calculate amperage is Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, 1440 watts divided by 120 Volts equals 12 amps.

In simple terms, watts can be derived by multiplying A x V. So to answer your question, 1.7 x 120 = 204 watts

watts = volts x amps x Power Factor. PF = 1 for resistive loads and decreases toward zero with loads like motors. So assuming a PF = 1, 1440/120 = 12 amps.

A time value has to be added to this question. Watt hours is defined as, the amount of watts that have been used over a certain amount time using an hour as a value.
