Conversion Using the Power Formula :
DC Volts to Kw Calculation:
The Real power (P) in kilowatts (kW) is equal to the voltage V in volts (V), times the Current (I) in amps (A) divided by 1000:
For example, let’s convert 24 volts to KW for a DC circuit with 5 amps of current.
P(KW) = 24 x 5 ÷ 1000
P(kw) = 0.12 Kw
AC Single Phase Volts to Kw Calculation:
The Real power (P) in kilowatts (kW) is equal to the power factor PF times the current I in amps (A), times the voltage V in volts (V) divided by 1000:
For example, let’s convert 220 volts to Kw for an AC electrical circuit with 15 amps of current and a power factor of 0.8.
P(KW) = 0.8 x 220 x 15 ÷ 1000
P(kw) = 2.640 Kw
Ac Three Phase Volts to Kw Calculation :
Calculation with Line to Line Voltage:
The Real power (P) in kilowatts (kW) is equal to the square root of 3 times the power factor PF times the current I in amps (A), times the line-to-line RMS voltage VL-L in volts (V) divided by 1000:
P(KW) = √3 x Pf x V(V) x I(A) ÷ 1000
P(KW) = √3 x 0.8 x 440 x 12 ÷ 1000
P(kw) = 7.316 Kw
Calculation with Line to Neutral Voltage:
The Real Power (P) in kilowatts (kW) is equal to the 3 times the power factor PF times the current I in amps (A), times the line-to-neutral RMS voltage VL-N in volts (V) divided by 1000:
For example, let’s convert 440 Volts to KW for an AC Electrical circuit with 14 amps of current and a power factor of 0.9.
P(KW) = 3 x 0.9 x 440 x 14 ÷ 1000
P(kw) = 16.632 Kw
Where:
-
- P = Power in watts
- V = Voltage in volts
- I = Current in amperes
- Cosθ = Power factor in AC circuits
- VL-L = Line to Line Voltage in 3-Phase Circuits
- VL-N = Line to Neutral Voltage in 3-Phase Circuits

Frequently asked questions
An electrical theory tells us that for a single-phase system, kW = (V × I × PF) ÷ 1,000. kW = (V × I) ÷ 1,000.
For example, a 200kVA generator with a power factor of 0.8 outputs 80kW actual power; 200 kVA x 0.8 = 160 kW.
6 unit of electricity = 6 kWh. The electricity used is generally charged for in “unit of electricity'. Killowatt-hours is the product of watts x time (1 kilowatt = 1000 watts).
How Many Watts in 1 Amp? The wattage in 1 amp depends on the voltage of the system. Using the formula for DC conversion: Watts = Amps x Volts, at 120 volts, 2 amps would equal 240 watts.
1 Volt is defined as energy consumption of 1 joule per electric charge of 1 coulomb. 1V = 1J/C.
