AWG ⇄ mm²

AWG to mm² Converter (Wire Size)

Convert American Wire Gauge (AWG) to cross-sectional area in square millimeters (mm²) and conductor diameter.

Open Converter
mm² ⇄ AWG

mm² to AWG Converter (Metric to AWG)

Convert metric cross-sectional wire area in square millimeters (mm²) to the nearest standard American Wire Gauge (AWG).

Open Converter
Watts (W) ⇄ Amperes (A)

Watts to Amps Converter (W to A)

Convert electrical power in Watts (W) to electric current in Amperes (A) for DC, 1-Phase AC, and 3-Phase AC.

Open Converter
Amperes (A) ⇄ Watts (W)

Amps to Watts Converter (A to W)

Convert electric current in Amps (A) to power in Watts (W) and Kilowatts (kW).

Open Converter
Volts (V) ⇄ Watts (W)

Volts to Watts Converter (V to W)

Calculate power in Watts from voltage when either current (Amps) or resistance (Ohms) is known.

Open Converter
kW ⇄ HP

kW to HP Converter (Kilowatts to Horsepower)

Convert Kilowatts (kW) to Mechanical Horsepower (HP) and Metric Horsepower (PS).

Open Converter
HP ⇄ kW

HP to kW Converter (Horsepower to Kilowatts)

Convert Mechanical Horsepower (HP) and Metric Horsepower (PS) into electrical Kilowatts (kW).

Open Converter
Amp-Hours (Ah) ⇄ Watt-Hours (Wh)

Amp Hours to Watt Hours Converter (Ah to Wh)

Convert battery capacity from amp-hours to watt-hours at 12V, 24V or 48V. The key step when sizing solar, RV and off-grid battery banks.

Open Converter
Watt-Hours (Wh) ⇄ Amp-Hours (Ah)

Watt Hours to Amp Hours Converter (Wh to Ah)

Convert energy in watt-hours back to battery capacity in amp-hours for a 12V, 24V or 48V bank. Essential when a load is rated in Wh or kWh.

Open Converter
Watts (W) ⇄ Volt-Amps (VA)

Watts to VA Converter (W to Volt-Amps)

Convert real power in watts to apparent power in VA using the load power factor. The correct way to size a UPS, generator or inverter.

Open Converter
Volt-Amps (VA) ⇄ Watts (W)

VA to Watts Converter (Volt-Amps to W)

Convert a UPS, generator or transformer VA rating into the real watts it can deliver at your load's power factor.
