So that you can define “Current are equivalent to the power(in watts) divided by volts(V).
I=The current I in amps (A)
p=the power P in watts (W)
V=the voltage V in volts (V)
Let’s take an example
Example#1
Wee need to Find out the current(I) in amps where the power(P) is 300 watts and the voltage(V) supply is 100 volts in the circuit.
I = 300W / 100V = 3A
I= Current in amps (A)
P=the power P in watts (W)
PF=the power factor PF
V=the Root Mean Square voltage V in volts (V)
So that you can define Current(in amps) are equal to the Power(in watts) divided by PF times volts(V).
or you can re-write formula like this
Let’s take an example
Example#1
Find out the current(I) in amps where the power(P) is 300 watts and the PF is 0.8 and the Root Mean Square voltage(V) supply in the circuit is 100 volts
I = 300W / (0.8 × 100V) = 3.75A
I=The phase current I in amps (A)
P=the real power P in watts (W)
PF=power factor PF
VL-L=the line to line Root Mean Square voltage VL-L in volts (V)
So that you can define “Current(I) amps are equal to Power(in watts) divided by 1.732 PF times volts”
or You can re-write this formula like this
Let’s take an example
Example#2
Find out the current(I) in amps where the power(P) is 300 watts, the PF is 0.8 and the Root Mean Square voltage(V) in the circuit is 100 volts.
I = 300W / (1.732 × 0.8 × 100V) =300/138.56=2.165A
I=The phase current I in amps (A)
P=the real power P in watts (W)
PF=the power factor PF
VL-0=the line to neutral Root Mean Square voltage VL-0 in volts (V)
So that you can define Cuurent(I) amps are equal to the power(P in watts) divided by 3 times PF times volts(V).
or you can rewrite this formula like this
Let’s take an example
Example#3
Find out the current(I) in amps where the power(P) is 300 watts, the PF is 0.8 and the Root Mean Square voltage(V) in the circuit is 100 volts
I = 300W / (3 × 0.8 × 100V) =300W/240=1.25A
where DC = Direct Current, AC = Alternating Current
