RMS to Watts calculator with the required physical inputs.

Formula

Real power (W) = Vrms × Irms × Power factor
  • Calculate AC real power from RMS voltage, RMS current and power factor. RMS voltage by itself cannot be converted to watts.
  • The main inputs are RMS voltage, RMS current, Power factor. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
  • For unit conversions, the calculator applies the conversion relationship shown above and keeps source and target units consistent with the selected options.
  • Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.

Example: Rms To Watts

Inputs
  • RMS voltage: 120
  • RMS current: 2 A
  • Power factor: 1

120 V × 2 A × 1.0 = 240 W.
