In the case of DC, and in AC when current and voltage are in phase, a volt-ampere is the same as a watt (and therefore, a kilo-volt-ampere is the same as a kW). In the case of AC, when current and voltage are NOT in phase, power = voltage x current x power factor; the power factor is the cosine of the angle between current and voltage, and it is always less than or equal to one. In such a case, a kVA would be less than a kW.

It equals zero without a voltage.


How many horsepower equals 1 kW?

One kilowatt is approximately equal to 1.34 horsepower.


300kva equals amps?

To convert kVA to amps, you need to also know the voltage. If we assume a standard voltage of 480V, then 300 kVA would be approximately 360 amps. This is calculated by dividing the kVA by the voltage and then converting to amps using the formula: Amps = (kVA * 1000) / (1.732 * Volts) where 1.732 is the square root of 3.


How can you find watts from kva?

To convert kVA (apparent power) to watts (real power), you can use the formula: Watts = kVA x power factor. The power factor represents the efficiency of power transfer and is typically provided in the problem or can be assumed for certain types of electrical equipment. By multiplying kVA by the power factor, you can determine the real power in watts.


Difference between two part tariff and three part tariff?

1.two part tariff= maximum demand+energy consumption (150 kva + any greater than 150 kva consumption) 2.three part tariff=maximum demand+energy consumption+ any energy charge (150 kva + any greater than 150 kva consumption + out source any energy charge ) unlimited usage of tariff is nothing but three part tariff
