HP to Amps Calculator

Input either the horsepower (HP) or amps (A), and this calculator will compute the missing value based on a standard conversion formula.

The HP to Amps Calculator assists in determining the relationship between horsepower and electric current (amperes). This tool is useful for electrical engineers, equipment operators, and hobbyists who need quick conversions for motors and electrical systems.

Formula

Amps Calculation:
$\text{Amps (A)} = \frac{\text{Horsepower (HP)}}{0.7457}$
Horsepower Calculation:

$\text{Horsepower (HP)} = \text{Amps (A)} \times 0.7457$

Variable	Description	Example Value
Horsepower (HP)	Power rating of equipment	5 HP
Amps (A)	Electrical current	6.71 A

Solved Calculations

Example 1:
Calculate amps for a motor:

Horsepower: 5 HP

Input	Value
Horsepower	5 HP
Formula	$\text{Amps} = \frac{\text{Horsepower}}{0.$
Calculation	$5 \div 0.745$
Result	6.71 A

Example 2:
Calculate horsepower from amps:

Amps: 10 A

Input	Value
Amps	10 A
Formula	$\text{Horsepower} = \text{Amps} \t$
Calculation	$10 \times 0.7457 = 7.$
Result	7.457 HP
