The wattage of an air conditioner (AC) can vary depending on the model, size, and cooling capacity. Typically, the power consumption of an AC is listed in watts (W) or kilowatts (kW), and it depends on its cooling capacity, which is measured in British Thermal Units (BTU). Here's a general breakdown:
- **Small room AC (up to 1 ton)**: Around **900 to 1,200 watts** (0.9 to 1.2 kW).
- **Medium room AC (1.5 tons)**: Around **1,200 to 1,800 watts** (1.2 to 1.8 kW).
- **Larger room or commercial AC (2 tons or more)**: Around **1,800 to 2,500 watts** (1.8 to 2.5 kW) or more.
To estimate the power usage more precisely, you can check the label or manual of the specific AC unit, which will list the exact power consumption.
