An amp is a mesurement of electrical CURRENT. There are milliamps,microamps,etc. Actually amp is short for ampere. An amp amp may be referring to the current draw of an amplifier also called an amp. A electronics dictionary does not have the term amp amp. It may be an invented term simply made up to impress the consumer or reader.

12 volt 9.6va what does this mean in amps?
To convert watts to amps, you need to divide the wattage by the voltage. In this case, 9.6VA divided by 12V equals 0.8 amps. So, 12 volt 9.6VA is equivalent to 0.8 amps.
What does fuse rating of 5 amps mean?
A fuse rating of 5 amps means that the fuse will break the circuit if the current passing through it exceeds 5 amps. It acts as a safety measure to protect the circuit from damage due to excessive current flow.
What do the watts mean in amps?
Watts is a measure of power, while amps is a measure of electric current. The relationship between watts and amps depends on the voltage of the circuit. The formula to calculate power (in watts) is P = V x I, where P is power in watts, V is voltage in volts, and I is current in amps.
200ma in amps?
200ma is .200 amps or .2 amps
Does a double 30 amp breaker mean you have 60 amps for a 220 outlet?
No, a double 30 amp breaker means you have a total of 30 amps available for each leg of the 220 volt outlet. So, in total, you have 60 amps available for the outlet (30 amps on each leg).
What does 0.20 Amps mean?
Amps is a unit of measure for current and .2 is just the measurement. (Amps is short for Ampere's)
What does the letters on a fuse mean?
amps and or volts
What does 0.20 mean?
Amps is a unit of measure for current and .2 is just the measurement. (Amps is short for Ampere's)
How many amps will a 2 0 wire carry?
If you mean 2/0 copper wire it is rated 175 amps. # 2 wire is 115 amps. If you are referring to 2.0 metric it is rated 15 amps.
12 volt 9.6va what does this mean in amps?
To convert watts to amps, you need to divide the wattage by the voltage. In this case, 9.6VA divided by 12V equals 0.8 amps. So, 12 volt 9.6VA is equivalent to 0.8 amps.
How many amps are a watt?
No.By which I mean: amps and watts are not just different units, they're different TYPES of units. You can't convert amps to watts without knowing the voltage (if you DO know the voltage, multiply volts by amps to get watts).
What does 5A mean in a standard fuse?
5 Amps. If the current passing through the fuse exceeds 5 Amps is should "blow".
What does WSA mean in electrical terms?
Wire Sizing Amps
What does rla mean on an air compressor?
Rated load amps = rla
What does 3.6VA mean?
It means 3.6 volt amps which is essentially 3.6 watts.
What does the word amps mean in science?
In science, amps refer to amperes, which is the unit used to measure electric current. It represents the rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit.
How many amps are in 40 volt amps?
Multiply the vots by the amps to find the volt-amps. Or divide the volt-amps by the voltage to find the amps.
