Amps is short for amperes, a measure of current in electricity. It is equivalent to one coulomb (a unit of charge) per second and is named after André-Marie Ampère.
AnswerAn 'amp' is a widely-used, but incorrect, symbol for the 'ampere', the SI unit of measurement for electric current. The correct symbol is an upper-case 'A'.
The ampere is one of seven SI Base Units, and is defined in terms of the force between two, parallel, current-carrying conductors due to the magnetic fields set up around those conductors.
The Ampere (often contracted to "amp") is a unit for measuring electrical current. It is equivalent to an electrical current of one coulomb per second. The current in a 120-watt light-bulb in North America is about one amp.

The prefix 'micro' means, one millionth. So there are one million micro amps in one amp
How many Amps is the fridge pulling? Multiply the Amps by the 120V circuit you're plugging into and you'll get your Watts.
Couple of things wrong here. 30 isn't a wire size. If you mean a wire that can carry 30 amps that would be # 10. Now it depends on how many # 10 wires you want to put into a conduit that governs the size of the conduit.
Current (amps)=Watts/Volts =2000/120 =16.75 =16.75 amps
Another word for amps would be current. Amps it the unit of mesure for current
In science, amps refer to amperes, which is the unit used to measure electric current. It represents the rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit.
Amps is a unit of measure for current and .2 is just the measurement. (Amps is short for Ampere's)
cranking amps or cold cranking amps Group refers to its physical dimensions.
amps and or volts
Amps is a unit of measure for current and .2 is just the measurement. (Amps is short for Ampere's)
If you mean 2/0 copper wire it is rated 175 amps. # 2 wire is 115 amps. If you are referring to 2.0 metric it is rated 15 amps.
To convert watts to amps, you need to divide the wattage by the voltage. In this case, 9.6VA divided by 12V equals 0.8 amps. So, 12 volt 9.6VA is equivalent to 0.8 amps.
No.By which I mean: amps and watts are not just different units, they're different TYPES of units. You can't convert amps to watts without knowing the voltage (if you DO know the voltage, multiply volts by amps to get watts).
5 Amps. If the current passing through the fuse exceeds 5 Amps is should "blow".
