Amp to Watt Converter
Convert amperes to watts for DC, single-phase AC, and three-phase AC circuits. Calculate power consumption from current measurements and circuit specifications.
Amp to Watt Conversion Formulas
DC Circuit
P = V × I
Power = Voltage × Current
Single Phase AC
P = V × I × PF
Power = Voltage × Current × Power Factor
Three Phase AC
P = √3 × V × I × PF
Power = √3 × Voltage × Current × Power Factor
