Example of KVA to Watts Calculations
To convert kilovolt-amperes (kVA) to watts (W), you need to know the power factor (PF) of the load. The formula to convert kVA to watts is:
Watts=kVA×Power Factor×1000
Assuming a common power factor of 0.8 for these calculations.
Table of kVA to Watts Conversions
Below is a table showing the conversion of various kVA values to watts sorted from smallest to largest, assuming a power factor of 0.8.
