Re: 10A @250V = 20A @125V for equal watts (Ohm's Law)

The amperage rating is the maximum at any voltage. It is the current rating of the conducter.

The voltage rating is the maximum the insulation can handle.

The insulation doesn't "care" about the current and the conducter doesn't "care" about the voltage.

(overly simplified)
