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.
| Amps (A) | Voltage (V) | Power Factor (PF) | kVA |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20 | 240 | 0.8 | 6.00 |
| 30 | 240 | 0.8 | 9.00 |
| 40 | 240 | 0.8 | 12.00 |
| 50 | 240 | 0.8 | 15.00 |
