    Google "ohm's law" and "Watts Law". You will find many resources fir what you are looking for. This one is good:

    Excellent calculator from above.
    Basically, Volts X Amps equals Watts.
    120 volts with a 10 amp load equals 1200 watts.
    Or, say you have a Hair drier that is 1200 watts.
    divide by the voltage.
    (1200 watts divided by 120 equals a 10 amp draw).
