    "Drooping" is a new word I never heard used when dealing with electricity.

    Do you mean voltage sag?

    Voltage can vary and if it goes below a certain tolerance is called sag.

    Voltage that rises above a certain tolerance is called swell.

    Amperage can vary depending on the load.

    Explain what your question is about.

    Power was used, measured in watts.

    Power = Volts times Amps

    Using your example, 220 volts times 2 amps = 440 watts of power was used.

    The power used was converted into light and heat dissapated from the lamp.
