electrical Formulas for Calculating amperes, Horsepower, Kilowatts and kva


To Find Amps when HP is known Amps when KW is known Amps when kVA is known Kilowatts (KW) Kilovolt-Amps (kVA) Horse Power (HP) V= Volts A= Amps single Phase HP x 746 V x %EFF x PF KW x 1000 V x PF kVA x 1000 V V x A x PF 1000 VxA 1000 Three Phase HP x 746 V x %EFF x PF x 1.73 KW x 1000 V x PF x 1.73 kVA x 1000 V x 1.73 V x A x PF x 1.73 1000 V x A x 1.73 1000

V x A x %EFF x PF V x A x %EFF x PF x 1.73 746 746 EFF = Efficiency PF= Power Factor
