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.
| kVA | Power Factor (PF) | kW |
|---|---|---|
| 1.00 | 0.80 | 0.80 |
| 5.00 | 0.80 | 4.00 |
| 10.00 | 0.80 | 8.00 |
| 15.00 | 0.80 | 12.00 |
| 20.00 | 0.80 | 16.00 |
| 25.00 | 0.80 | 20.00 |
| 30.00 | 0.80 | 24.00 |
| 40.00 | 0.80 | 32.00 |
| 45.00 | 0.80 | 36.00 |
| 50.00 | 0.80 | 40.00 |
| 75.00 | 0.80 | 60.00 |
| 100.00 | 0.80 | 80.00 |
| 125.00 | 0.80 | 100.00 |
| 150.00 | 0.80 | 120.00 |
| 200.00 | 0.80 | 160.00 |
| 250.00 | 0.80 | 200.00 |
| 300.00 | 0.80 | 240.00 |
| 400.00 | 0.80 | 320.00 |
| 450.00 | 0.80 | 360.00 |
| 500.00 | 0.80 | 400.00 |
| 600.00 | 0.80 | 480.00 |
| 750.00 | 0.80 | 600.00 |
| 1000.00 | 0.80 | 800.00 |
| 2000.00 | 0.80 | 1600.00 |
| 2500.00 | 0.80 | 2000.00 |
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
