Enter the total current in amps and the total voltage in volts into the calculator. The calculator will convert the amps to watts.

Amps to Watts Formula

The following equation can be used to convert the total number of amps into the total number of watts. In other words the total current to total power. 

 P = I * V
  • Where P is power in watts
  • I is the current in amps
  • V is the voltage in volts

To calculate watts from amps, multiply the amps by the voltage.

Amps to Watts Definition

Converting amps to watts involves multiplying the total current in amps by the total voltage to yield the total watts.
