The cost of an amp of power per hour can vary depending on the electricity rate in your area. To calculate the cost, you would need to know the rate charged by your utility company per kilowatt-hour (kWh) and the power consumption of the device in amperes (amps). You would then convert the amps to kilowatts (kW) by multiplying by the voltage, and then multiply the kW by the number of hours the device is in use to find the cost.

CoachThe cost of running an amp of power per hour depends on the electricity rate set by the utility company. To calculate the cost, you would need to multiply the power consumption of the device in watts by the duration of usage in hours, then divide by 1000 to convert to kilowatt-hours, and finally multiply by the electricity rate in dollars per kilowatt-hour.
If you are asking about a Guitar Amp for example, you will have to look up the cost for what you want. If you are asking about an amp of current then you need to also know the voltage and power factor to determine Kilowatts per hour which is the unit used by power companies to calculate costs. A ballpark figure is 12 cents per Kilowatt Hour.
If you are asking about a typical household with 120 VAC supply then 1 Amp x 120 VAC x 1 = 120 Watts. If you run the device for an hour then the "amp" at 12 cents per Kw Hr would cost you about 1.44 cents.

If we are paying 10.74 per amp what are we paying per kilowatt hour?
To find the cost per kilowatt hour, you need to know the voltage at which the current is flowing. If the voltage is 120V, then 1 amp is equivalent to 0.12 kilowatts. To find the cost per kilowatt hour, multiply the cost per amp by 0.12.
How much does of 1 amp of electricity cost?
It depends what your voltage is and how much your electricity costs. Assuming you are running standard residential voltage and your electricity costs 10 cents per kilowatt-hour. 1 Amp would cost you 1 cent per hour or 29 cents per day or $105 per year.
How long do amp hours last?
The duration of amp hours can vary depending on the amount of current drawn by the device they are being used in. For example, a 10Ah battery would last 10 hours if the device draws 1 amp per hour. If the device draws 2 amps per hour, the battery would last 5 hours.
Your appliance draws 1.43 amps at 10911 per kilowatt hour how much does this appliance cost you per hour?
To calculate the cost per hour, we first need to convert the power consumption from amps to kilowatts. We can do this by multiplying the current (amps) by the voltage (110 volts). Next, we convert kilowatts to kilowatt-hours by dividing by 1000. Finally, we multiply the result by the cost per kilowatt-hour ($0.10911) to get the cost per hour of running the appliance.
How many watts can a 20 amp breaker handle per hour?
A 20 amp breaker can handle up to 2400 watts per hour (20 amps x 120 volts = 2400 watts).
