KVA Calculator

The kVA calculator or power calculator will display the diesel generator kVA rating required to operate the equipment. Watts calculator to calculate Watts divided by Volts to Amps or Volts times Amps(current) to power(Watts). 

Convert Volts and Amps to Watts

V * A = W

20V * 50A = 1000W

Convert Volts and Amps to Watts

V * A = W

20V * 50A = 1000W

Amps calculator will convert Power divided by Amps to Volts or Power divided by Volts to Amps.

Convert Watts/Amps to Voltage

V = P / A

1000W / 10A = 100V

Amps Calculator

A = P / V

1000W / 100V = 10A

Power calculator will convert Power to kVA by dividing Power by three decimal places times the power factor to kVA or convert kVA to Watts by multiplying kVA by the power factor to Watts.

How to convert Power to kVA

P(W) / (1000 x PF) = kVA

10000 / (1000 x 0.5) = 20kVA

Convert kVA to Watts

kVA * PF = Watts

20000 * 0.5 = 10kW

Power conversion

1hp(E) = 746W = 0.746kW

P(hp) =10kW / 0.746 = 13.405 hp

Single Phase Generator to Three Phase Converter

The Generator is used to feed the Three Phase Converter with;

Single Phase inputs 1.5kW to 22kW

Single Phase inputs 1.5kW to 22kW

These vary with the convertor used.
