You need to know the voltage and Power Factor in the equation Watts = Amps x Volts x Power Factor. Now Power Factor is equal to one for a resistance load and decreases for loads like motors. So for example if you are talking about a home portable electric heater that draws 15 Amps at 120 Volts your Watts would be 15 x 120 = 1800 watts or 1.8 kilowatts.

How many watts can be on a 15amp breaker?
At 120 volts a 15 amp breaker can be loaded to 1800 watts before it will trip. If it is a continuous load then the electrical code states that it is only allowed to be loaded to 80%. This will be 1800 x .8 = 1440 watts. If the voltage is not 120 volts use the following equation Watts = Amps x Volts. Amps being the breaker size that is to be used.
How much wattage is available in a 15amp breaker?
A 15-amp breaker can handle a maximum load of 1800 watts (15 amps x 120 volts). However, it is recommended to only load a circuit up to 80% of its capacity, so in practice, you should only use up to 1440 watts on a 15-amp breaker.

970 kilowatts-hour is equivilent to how many watts?
970,000 watts. Not really. You are trying to express an energy in terms of a power unit. You can't express a distance in speed units and this is the same sort of thing. 970 kilowatts running for 1 hour would mean you have to pay for 970 kWH. Equally, 970 Watts running for 1000 hours is also 970KWH. It is an extremely common error.
