Frequently Asked Questions

What is kVA?

kVA is apparent power in kilovolt-amperes. It is voltage × current (for AC, considering power factor). Used for sizing cables and equipment.

How do I convert kVA to amps?

Amps = (kVA × 1000) ÷ (Voltage × √3 for three-phase, or ÷ Voltage for single-phase). This calculator does it for you.

Single-phase vs three-phase?

Single-phase is common in homes (e.g. 230V). Three-phase is used in industry and commercial; the formula includes √3.
