Note, For higher values like 5×103, 10×10-6, 1.6 x1012, enter the value like this for scientific notation as 5e3, 10e-6, 1.6e12, etc.

Conversion Using the Power Formula :

AC Single Phase Amps to VA Calculation:

The apparent power (S) in volt-amps is equal to Current (I) in amps, times the voltage (V) in volts:

For example, let’s find the volt-amps for a single-phase circuit with 10 amps of current at 220 volts.

S(VA) = I(A) x V(V)
S(VA) = 10 x 220
S(VA) = 2200

Ac Three Phase Amps to VA Calculation :

The apparent power (S) in kilovolt-amps is equal to the square root of 3 current (I) in amps, times the line-to-line voltage VL-L in volts:

For example, let’s find the amps for a 480 volt 3-phase electrical circuit with 80 amps of current.

S(VA) = √3 x I(A) x V(L-L)
S(VA) = √3 x 10 x 480
S(VA) = 8313

Where:

    • S = Apparent Power in Volt-amps (VA)
    • I = Current in Amps (A)
    • VL-L = Line to Line Voltage in 3-Phase Circuits
    • = Voltage in Volts (v)

Frequently asked questions

What is VA in amps?

A volt-ampere (VA) is a measurement of Real power in a direct current (DC) electrical circuit. The VA specification is also used in alternating current (AC) circuits.

What is 4000 VA?

Alternating Current) 4000 Volt Amps, is 4000 Watts for a purely resistive load. However, the current flow will be out of phase with respect to the voltage for an inductive (some motors) or capacitive (buried cables) load.

Is it VA or kVA?

A KVA is simply 1000 volt-amps. A volt is an electrical pressure. An amp is an electrical current. A term called apparent power (VA) is equal to the product of the volts and amps.

What is a watt formula?

Watts = Amps x Volts
20 Amps x 120 Volts = 2400 Watts. 10 Amps x 230 Volts = 2300 Watts.

How to convert HP to kVA?

Now 1HP = 1492W=1.492kW=1.492kVA , assuming power Factor=1.
