How does power get calculated with this thing?
The tool applies the basic rule: Power in watts is equal to voltage in volts times current in amps. You enter voltage and current and the tool multiplies those together to get watts (W).
What if I don’t know the voltage or current of my device?
You can typically find the voltage and current on the label of the device or in the product manual. Otherwise, consult the manufacturer’s website or take a multimeter to them and measure it.
Is this tool capable of power calculations for DC circuits?
It is the same formula for both AC and DC circuits. But in the case of AC circuits, you might have to consider the power factor for some more complicated calculations.
Is that answer in watts (W)?
Yes! Power in the standard unit for electrical power, watts (W), is calculated.
What if I need a very high voltage or current?
The method is applicable for low and high voltage or current levels. Just provide the numbers, and it will calculate the right answer.
What does this mean for me?
It can help you to know the power usage of a device, e.g., learning how energy an appliance consumes or electricity cost, home or business's optimal energy consumption etc.
Does this factor in energy wasted=efficiency?
No, this tool is used to calculate the theoretical power consumption in Watt based on input voltage and current. It does not account for energy loss, power inefficiencies and power factor on ac circuits. More complicated situations will require further analysis.
