We have seen some API's on windows which can display the voltages to the processor. Is there any way to measure the amperage to the processor? The idea is to monitor the power usage of the processor in a machine.
Dear friend please go through the link you will get the exact idea.

There are a few applications now available. For instance, Microsoft Joulemeter can estimate CPU power. Some applications like HP Power Assistant can estimate the power consumption of the whole computer.
API that you could explore: Power API, Performance API
