When it comes to Watts, Amps, and Volts, you can easily calculate the third electrical rating if you have values for the first two. Here is a calculator to help you convert between amps, volts, and watts in milliseconds.
How to Use the Calculator
-
To get Watts, you calculate Volts × Amps. It follows that you only need values for two electrical ratings to get the third.
-
Input values for Watts and Amps, for example, and our calculator will automatically compute the equivalent Volts.
Why Calculate Amps, Watts, and Volts?
When the utilities of your building do not match the voltage amps and watts of the machine equipment you have in your kitchen, there are bound to be problems. You might notice internal components getting damaged, circuits being overloaded and causing wiring damage, or energy bills running inexplicably high.
This is why you must learn to calculate the Watts, Amps, and Volts, especially if you work in a commercial setting with several commercial kitchen equipment like Commercial Refrigerators, Convection ovens, or Commercial Griddles.
Volts (V) – Electrical Pressure
Volts measure the electrical pressure or potential difference in a circuit. Voltage measures the force that pushes electrical current through wires.
Why Volts Matter for Your Kitchen Equipment？
Most types of kitchen equipment are designed to run on a specific voltage (e.g., 120V or 240V in the U.S.). Using equipment with the wrong voltage can damage internal components or cause it to fail to operate.
When there is a voltage mismatch, you are also at risk of electrical shorts, fires, and many other safety hazards.
Amps (A) – Electrical Current
Amps measure the amount of electrical current flowing through a circuit. In other words, Amps tell you how much electricity is being used by the device at any given time.
Why Amps Matter for Your Kitchen Equipment？
Kitchen equipment, especially high-powered appliances (like ovens, refrigerators, or industrial dishwashers), may require a certain number of amps to operate.
If any of these appliances draws more amps than the circuit is rated for, it can overload the circuit, potentially tripping breakers or causing wiring damage.
Knowing the amperage will ensure your home's wiring, fuses, or circuit breakers are appropriately rated.
Watts (W) – Electrical Power
Wattage refers to a unit of power representing the total energy a device consumes over time.
Why Watts Matter for Your Kitchen Equipment
Knowing how many watts your equipment uses helps with energy efficiency and capacity planning. High-wattage appliances (like commercial ranges or fryers) consume more power, which could increase energy bills or overload circuits if not accounted for.
It also helps choose the right electrical infrastructure for large kitchens (e.g., whether the facility can handle the total wattage needed for simultaneous equipment use).
