Watts to Volts Calculator

To use the calculator, select the current type, enter the power in watts and current in amps, and provide the power factor (a value between 0 and 1) for AC systems. For AC three phase systems, choose between line to line or line to neutral voltage. Click the “Calculate” button to display the voltage result in volts in the output section. Click “Reset” to clear all fields and revert to the default settings.

DC Watts to Volts Calculation

V(V) = P(W) / I(A), where

V(V) – voltage in volts (V),

P(W) – power in watts (W),

I(A) – electric current in amps (A).

Example.

Let’s say we have a device that has a power rating of 60 watts, and we want to find out the voltage required to power it. We can use the formula:

V(V) = P(W) / I(A) = 60 watts / 2 amperes = 30 volts

AC Single Phase Watts to Volts Calculation

V(V) = P(W) / (PF × I(A)), where

V(V) – RMS voltage in volts (V),

P(W) – power in watts (W),

PF – power factor,

I(A) – phase current in amps (A).

Example.

Let’s say we have a single-phase AC circuit with a power consumption of 500 watts, and we want to find out the voltage of the circuit. Electric current in the circuit is 2.5 amperes. The power factor is a measure of how efficiently the circuit is using the supplied power. For this example, let’s assume a power factor of 0.8.

We can use the following formula:

V(V) = P(W) / (PF × I(A)) = 500 watts / (2.5 amperes x 0.8) = 250 volts

AC Three Phase Watts to Volts Calculation

Calculation with Line to Line Voltage

VL-L(V) = P(W) / (√3 × PF × I(A)), where

VL-L(V) – line to line RMS voltage in volts (V),

P(W) – power in watts (W),

PF – power factor,

I(A) – phase current in amps (A).

Example.

Let’s say we have a three-phase AC circuit with a power consumption of 10,000 watts and a power factor of 0.9, and we want to find out the line to line voltage of the circuit. Electric current in the circuit is 30 amperes.

We can use the following formula:

VL-L(V) = P(W) / (√3 × PF × I(A)) = 10,000 watts / (√3 x 30 amperes x 0.9) = 213.83 volts

Calculation with Line to Neutral Voltage

VL-N(V) = P(W) / (3 × PF × I(A)), where

VL-N(V) – line to neutral RMS voltage (V),

P(W) – power in watts (W),

PF – power factor,

I(A) – phase current in amps (A).
