Electrical current is measured in amperes or "amps" for short.
To calculate amps you would take watts of the product divided by volts.
Formula: amp = watt / volt or A = W / V
Example
What is the current in amps when the power consumption is 330 watts and the voltage supply is 120 volts?
I = 330W / 120V = 2.75A
