    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    Watts can not be converted to amps because they are two different categories of measurement. However, if the voltage is known, then amps can be calculated. It is known that amps = watts/volts, so, if a generator's output were 120 volts, then the current would be 15,000/120 = 125 amps.

    The 1500 watt Coleman generator I use for camping is rated at .5 amps on the 110 volt AC circuit and 15 amps on the 12 volt DC circuit.
