Convert power in watts to current in amps. 2300 W at 230 V draws 10 A; the same 2300 W at 120 V draws ~19.2 A.

How to convert watts to amps
A = W ÷ V. The result depends on the supply voltage — enter the correct voltage for your region (120 V, 230 V or 400 V).
Common mistake
Assuming a fixed amp value for a wattage. 1000 W is 4.35 A at 230 V but 8.33 A at 120 V.
