How do you convert horsepower to KVA?
The term horsepower has several definitions, depending on usage. According to WikiPedia, the Electric Motor usage is 746 watts. One kva (kilo-volt-amp) is 1,000 watts, so you might be able to say that one kva is 746,000 watts. Unfortunately, kva depends on phase angle and, except for a power factor of one (purely resistive), kva is not the same as kw (kilo-watts). Someone else with more knowledge than I will need to enhance this answer.
What is the kva rating on a 1.5hp motor?
One horsepower is equal to 746 watts.
What is the power of AC generators measured in kW or kVA?
Yes, you can use both, but watts is more useful; it provides the total amount of power the generator can output.
How do you convert single phase kva to three phase kva?
Va=volts x amps. The K stands for one thousand. So 1 Kva is one thousand watts. So 415v times 120a= 49,800 what's. You divide that by a thousand and you get 49.8. So it would be 49.8 Kva.
Show solution of conversion of 1KVA to watts.?
1kva means 1kv per ampere therefore 1 amp flowing and 1 kv deduce to be the product of the two or 1kw
