The sizing of wire is calculated by the amount of current the circuit draws. To find the amperage when the wattage is known use the following formula, Amps = Watts/Volts. 6500/240 = 27 amps.
A #10 AWG copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less, when supplying 27 amps at 240 volts for a 100 foot distance.

The wattage would be 500 watts. This is calculated by multiplying the amperage (5 amps) by the voltage (100 volts), resulting in 500 watts of power.
To calculate the watts, you can use the formula: Watts = Amps x Volts. In this case, 100 amps x 120 volts equals 12,000 watts.
To convert watts to amps, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. Assuming a standard voltage of 120V, 1500 watts would be equivalent to 12.5 amps (1500 watts / 120 volts = 12.5 amps).
If each spotlight is rated at 100 watts, together they would use 200 watts. To convert watts to amps, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. Assuming a standard voltage of 120V in a household setting, the double 100 watt spotlight would use approximately 1.67 amps.
As asked, the question cannot be answered. At 1 volt, 300 Watts = 300 Amps. At 10 volts, 300 Watts = 30 Amps. At 100 volts, 300 Watts = 3 Amps. At 120 volts, 300 Watts = 2.5 Amps. At 240 volts, 300 Watts = 1.25 Amps. To calculate the relationship between Amps, Volts and Watts, use the formula: Watts = Amps * volts
