kW to VA Calculator

Calculate Volt-Amperes from Kilowatts





Formula

The formula to convert kilowatts to volt-amperes is:

\[ VA = \frac{kW \times 1000}{PF} \]

Definition

Kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power equal to 1,000 watts. Volt-ampere (VA) is a unit of apparent power in an electrical circuit, equal to the product of root-mean-square (RMS) voltage and RMS current.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ VA = \frac{5 \times 1000}{0.8} = 6250 \]
