An 'amp' is a slang expression for 'ampere', whose correct symbol is 'A'. An ampere is the SI base unit for electric current, and is defined in terms of the force between parallel, current-carrying, conductors due to the magnetic fields that surround them. WebRep

A 'volt' (symbol: 'V') is the SI derived unit for potential difference (voltage), and is defined in terms of the energy required to separate electric charge.
Potential difference, or voltage, can be thought of as the 'electrical pressure' responsible for causing current to pass through a conductor.
Amps (amperes) refer to the flow of electric current in a circuit, measuring the quantity of electrons passing through a point per second. Volts measure the electrical potential difference between two points in a circuit, determining the force that drives the current. In essence, volts indicate the "pressure" of electricity, while amps indicate the "quantity" of electricity.

How many volts it takes to cause a current of 1.95 amps to exist in a 200 watt lamp?
The formula to calculate the relationship between amps, volts and watts is Volts X Amps = Watts or Volts = Watts / Amps or Amps = Watts / Volts therefore; 200 Watts divided by 1.95 Amps is 102.5641 Volts.
How many amps can handle in 12 volts a 600 volts 15 amps rated terminal bar?
The terminal strip's rating is 15 amps at 600 volts. It does not matter what the voltage is up to 600 volts, the maximum amperage allowed on the strip is 15 amps. It could be 15 amps at 12 volts or 15 amps at 600 volts or any voltage in between.
How many watt in amp?
Watts cannot be directly converted to amps because the two units measure different quantities. Watts are a measure of power, while amps are a measure of electrical current. The relationship between watts, amps, and voltage is given by the formula: Watts = Amps x Volts.
What does 1500 watts equal in amps at 120 volts?
To convert watts to amps at 120 volts, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 1500 watts at 120 volts, the calculation would be: 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps.
Are fuses sized on amps and volts?
Fuses are rated in Amps. Although the physical size of a fuse is to do with volts; the further the terminals are apart the less likelihood there is of 'sparkover' between them.

How can you convert amperes in to volts?
Amperes does not convert into volts they are two different values. Become familiar with the following formula and look at the relationships between the values. Volts = Amps x Resistance, Amps = Volts / Resistance and Resistance = Volts / Amps.

The terminal strip's rating is 15 amps at 600 volts. It does not matter what the voltage is up to 600 volts, the maximum amperage allowed on the strip is 15 amps. It could be 15 amps at 12 volts or 15 amps at 600 volts or any voltage in between.
What is a difference between vollage and watt?
Watts = Volts / Ohms Watts = Volts x Amps
How many watt in amp?
Watts cannot be directly converted to amps because the two units measure different quantities. Watts are a measure of power, while amps are a measure of electrical current. The relationship between watts, amps, and voltage is given by the formula: Watts = Amps x Volts.
If voltage is 12 volts and ohms is 0.5 how many amps in circuit?
Ohm's law: Volts = Amps * Ohms, or Amps = Volts / Ohms 12 volts / 0.5 ohms = 24 amps
What does 1500 watts equal in amps at 120 volts?
To convert watts to amps at 120 volts, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 1500 watts at 120 volts, the calculation would be: 1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps.
4 volts is a many watts?
4 volts and how many amps? Watts = amps x volts. It depends on the amount of current (in Amps) flowing at 4 Volts... See Ohms Law: Watts = Volts x Amps If you have 2 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 8 Watts. If you have 10 Amps flowing at 4 Volts you are dissipating/consuming 40 Watts.
Are fuses sized on amps and volts?
Fuses are rated in Amps. Although the physical size of a fuse is to do with volts; the further the terminals are apart the less likelihood there is of 'sparkover' between them.
Using 120 volts at 12 amps is the same power as what amps at 220 volts?
6 amps.
How many amps at 120 volts equals 16 amps at 12 volts?
160 amps at 12v.
How many amps at 12 volts equals 16 amps at 120 volts?
160 amps at 12v.
