Understanding kVA to Amps Conversion
What is kVA?
kVA (kilovolt-amperes) is a measure of apparent power in electrical systems. It represents the total power capacity of electrical equipment, including both real power (kW) and reactive power (kVAR).
Conversion Formulas
Single Phase: Amps = (kVA × 1000) ÷ Voltage
Three Phase: Amps = (kVA × 1000) ÷ (Voltage × √3)
Common Applications
This conversion is crucial for:
- Sizing electrical equipment
- Transformer selection
- Generator capacity planning
- Industrial power distribution
