How to Convertir 10 amps to watts

How to Convertir Électrique current of 10 amps (A) to electric power in watts (W).

You can Calculer (but not Convertir) the watts from amps and volts:

For DC power supply, watts are equal to amps times volts.

watts = amps × volts

watts = 10A × 12V = 120W

For AC power supply, watts are equal to the power factor times amps times volts.

watts = PF × amps × volts

For resistive load without inductors or capacitors, the power factor is equal to 1:

watts = 1 × 10A × 120V = 1200W

For inductive load (like induction motor), the power factor can be approximately equal to 0.8:

watts = 0.8 × 10A × 120V = 960W

For AC power supply, watts are equal to the power factor times amps times volts.

watts = PF × amps × volts

For resistive load without inductors or capacitors, the power factor is equal to 1:

watts = 1 × 10A × 230V = 2300W

For inductive load (like induction motor), the power factor can be approximately equal to 0.8:

watts = 0.8 × 10A × 230V = 1840W
