Determine the wattage rating of the device powered by the electrical circuit. The wattage is most often listed somewhere on the device itself, or in its user manual.
Divide the number of millivolts by 1,000 to find the number of volts in the circuit. Each volt contains 1,000 millivolts.
Divide the number of watts by the number of volts. The result will be the amperage, or number of amps, in the circuit.
