ENGINEERED IN NAIROBI. WORKING ACROSS EAST AFRICA.

kVA ↔ amps

Convert apparent power and current, with active and reactive components at the power factor you enter.

Enable JavaScript for live calculations. Read the method and default example below.

Method and assumptions

  • S = √3 × V × I / 1000; P = S × power factor.
  • Supply: Three phase, balanced, 415 V.

Before using the result

  • Balanced sinusoidal load assumed. This conversion does not select a breaker or cable.
