To convert kilovolt-amperes (kVA) to kilowatt-hours (kWh), you need to know the duration in hours (h) and the power factor (PF) of the load. The formula to convert kVA to kWh is:
kWh=kVA×Hours×Power Factor
Assuming a common power factor of 0.8 and a duration of 1 hour for these calculations.
Below is a table showing the conversion of various kVA values to kWh, sorted from smallest to largest, assuming a power factor of 0.8 and a duration of 1 hour.

To convert 1 kVA to kWh at a power factor of 0.8 and a duration of 1 hour:
kWh=1×1×0.8=0.8 kWh
To convert 10 kVA to kWh at a power factor of 0.8 and a duration of 1 hour:
kWh=10×1×0.8=8 kWh
To convert 100 kVA to kWh at a power factor of 0.8 and a duration of 1 hour:
kWh=100×1×0.8=80 kWh
