To convert kilovolt-amperes (kVA) to kilowatts (kW), you need to know the power factor (PF) of the load. The formula to convert kVA to kW is:
kW = kVA×Power Factor
Assuming a common power factor of 0.8 for these calculations.
Below is a table showing the conversion of various kVA values to kW, sorted from smallest to largest, assuming a power factor of 0.8.

To convert 1 kVA to kW at a power factor of 0.8:
kW=1×0.8=0.80 kW
To convert 10 kVA to kW at a power factor of 0.8:
kW=10×0.8=8.00 kW
To convert 100 kVA to kW at a power factor of 0.8:
kW=100×0.8=80.00 kW
