  2. Volt-ampere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt-ampere

    The volt-ampere (SI symbol: VA, [1] sometimes V⋅A or V A) is the unit of measurement for apparent power in an electrical circuit. It is the product of the root mean square voltage (in volts) and the root mean square current (in amperes). [2] Volt-amperes are usually used for analyzing alternating current (AC) circuits.

  3. Power rating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_rating

    Average power calculation rating depends on some assumptions about how the device is going to be used. For example, the EIA rating method for loudspeakers uses a shaped noise signal that simulates music and allows peak excursion of 6 dB, so an EIA rating of 50 Watts corresponds to 200 Watts peak rating.

  4. Watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt

    In terms of electromagnetism, one watt is the rate at which electrical work is performed when a current of one ampere (A) flows across an electrical potential difference of one volt (V), meaning the watt is equivalent to the volt-ampere (the latter unit, however, is used for a different quantity from the real power of an electrical circuit).

  5. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    The useful power of this linear motor is =, being the power, the useful voltage (applied voltage minus back-EMF voltage), and the current. But, since power is also equal to force multiplied by speed, the force F {\displaystyle F} of the linear motor is F = P / ( V K v ) {\displaystyle F=P/(VK_{\text{v}})} or F = I / K v {\displaystyle F=I/K ...

  6. Wattmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wattmeter

    For each sample, the voltage is multiplied by the current at the same instant; the average over at least one cycle is the real power. The real power divided by the apparent volt-amperes (VA) is the power factor. A computer circuit uses the sampled values to calculate RMS voltage, RMS current, VA, power (watts), power factor, and kilowatt-hours.

  7. Orders of magnitude (power) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(power)

    For reference, about 10,000 100-watt lightbulbs or 5,000 computer systems would be needed to draw 1 MW. Also, 1 MW is approximately 1360 horsepower. Modern high-power diesel-electric locomotives typically have a peak power of 3–5 MW, while a typical modern nuclear power plant produces on the order of 500–2000 MW peak output.

  8. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

    Moreover, similar types of apparatus will have the impedances lying within a narrow numerical range when expressed as a per-unit fraction of the equipment rating, even if the unit size varies widely. Conversion of per-unit quantities to volts, ohms, or amperes requires a knowledge of the base that the per-unit quantities were referenced to.

  9. Audio power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power

    Audio power is the electrical power transferred from an audio amplifier to a loudspeaker, measured in watts.The electrical power delivered to the loudspeaker, together with its efficiency, determines the sound power generated (with the rest of the electrical power being converted to heat).
