In electric circuits, power is a function of both voltage and current:
P = IV
P =  Power
V =  Voltage
I =  Current
We would like to find I in the equation, so when we transform the equation;
I = P / V
Insert the values into the equation:
 11ec0fda_9983_2b0c_a67f_33ae022326cf_NR0004_00 The iron draws 17 Amperes of current.
