It is especially important in some cholesterol abnormalities, the most important one being FH. The higher the number, the greater the risk of an adverse event such as a heart attack or stroke. The lower the number, the lower your risk. HDL-C is the other key cholesterol number you will often hear your doctor mention. Typically, the higher the HDL-C the lower your risk of one of the aforementioned events.
So 1 watt is any ratio of volts x watts that equals 1. 1volt x 1amp = 1 watt. or. 9v @ .11 amps = 1 watt. For ratio of volts x watts above read product of volts x amps. True for resistive loads.
Second, you need to know the volts flowing through the wires. Volts are a measure of the pressure that causes current to flow through a circuit. Generally, household wiring is 120 or 240 volts. To determine the amount of wattage a branch circuit can handle, multiply the circuit's amperage by the circuit's volts. A 20-amp, 120-volt circuit can handle 2,400 watts. The following list gives you the average wattage rating for common household equipment.
