The formula you are looking for is W = A x V.
If we assume that the inverter is used in your car on 12 Volts DC and you are creating 120 VAC; and the 2500 watts refers to the AC side of inverter then for a resistive load Amps = Watts / Volts = 2500/120.
Watts = Amps x Volts x Power Factor If you are talking about a light bulb or similar 60 watt device at 120 VAC the answer is 1/2 amp using standard household voltage and a power factor of 1.
18 amps.
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amperage (A) = Watts (W) / Voltage (V). In this case, the heater draws 3500 watts and operates at 230 volts. So, the amperage will be approximately 15.22 amps.
Using 110 volt service, 5,000/110= 45 amps
Let's start with a typical 110 VAC service. You probably have 20 amp breakers in the service in the garage, and with at least 2 breakers, we have some idea of the theoretical electrical consumption. Remember, Volts X Amps = WATTS, so 110VAC X (2 breakers X 20AMPs) = 110 X 2 X 20 = 2200 WATTS
The terminology for VAC is Voltage Alternating Current. As for big watts, it is not electrical terminology, it could be a way of expressing maximum permitted wattage. Watts is the product of amps times volts. W = A x V.
Watts = current x volts for a resistive load. You need to know a voltage to calculate amps. If it is a 120 VAC residential voltage it would be a whopping 266,000/120 = A or 2,216.7 Amps. If it is 240 VAC then half that. To put that in perspective the service to a typical residence might be between 100 and 200 Amps.

watts = Current x Volts for a resistive load. If you are talking about residential voltage of 120 VAC the formula is A = 12,000 / 120 or 100 Amps. 100. That current can kill you.
USE STEPDOWN TRANSFORMER: PRIMARY INPUT: 277 VAC SECONDARY: 110 VAC OR : THERE ARE AVAILABLE AVR'S - AUTOMATIC (ELECTRONIC) VOLTAGE REGULATORS WITH WIDE VOLTAGE RANGE IN THE MARKET; INPUT: 85 VAC TO 290 VAC OUTPUT: REGULATED (CONSTANT) OUTPUT: 220VAC AND 110 VAC
Any where from 110 volts to 130 volts alternating current is available from a 110 VAC outlet.
To know Amps you need to know the voltage and power factor. For a pure resistive load and a normal house voltage of 120 VAC then you just divide wattage by voltage to get Amps. Power factor is a maximum of one for resistive load and decreases with various inductive loads that cause current and voltage to be out of phase. Example 1: 1600 watts / 120 volts = 13.3 amps Example 2: 15 amp outlet x 120 volts = 1800 watts Best guess in your case is 13.3 Amps at 120 Volts assuming a load like an electric heater or incandescent bulbs.
