Example of Amps to kVA Calculations

To convert amperes (A) to kilovolt-amperes (kVA), you need to know the voltage (V) and the power factor (PF) of the load. The formula to convert amps to kVA is:

kVA=Amps×Volts/1000×Power Factor

Assuming a common voltage of 240V and a power factor of 0.8 for these calculations.

Table of Amps to kVA Conversions

Below is a table showing the conversion of various amperes values to kVA, sorted from smallest to largest, assuming a voltage of 240V and a power factor of 0.8.

Convert 10 Amps to kVA

To convert 10 amps to kVA at 240V with a power factor of 0.8:

kVA=10×240/1000×0.8=3 kVA

Convert 100 Amps to kVA

To convert 100 amps to kVA at 240V with a power factor of 0.8:

kVA=100×240/1000×0.8=30 kVA

Convert 600 Amps to kVA

To convert 600 amps to kVA at 240V with a power factor of 0.8:

kVA=600×240/1000×0.8=180 kVA
