The symbol, kV.A (not 'kva'), represents kilovolt amperes, which is the unit of measurement for apparent power -i.e. the product of supply voltage and load current in an a.c. circuit. The symbol, kV (not'kv'), represents kilovolts, which is the unit of measurement for potential difference.

∙ 11y agokV is actually the kilo Voltage at which an x-ray tube is operated.
KeV is the is the energy that an electron gains when it travels through a potential of one thousand volt.
When an x-ray tube is operated at 50kV the electrons from the cathode are accelerated towards the anode and the electrons, on hitting the anode, produce the x-rays. The x-rays thus produced will have a a spectrum of energies from a few keV to a maximum of 50keV. The average energy of the x-rays will be approximately one-third of the maximum energy 50 keV.

∙ 11y agoThe correct symbol for kilowatt is 'kW', where 'k' is lower-case. An upper-case 'K' is not used to represent multiples or submultiples.
The symbols used for some of the more common multiples of SI units are:
k kilo (x103)
M mega (x106)
G giga (x109)

How do you tell the difference from 13.2 kv power line to 4.8 kv power line?
The higher-voltage line will have longer insulators and the line conductors will be further apart. And the symbol for kilovolt is 'kV', not 'kv'.
What is difference between KV and KVA for transmission line?
KV, kilovolts, or kilojoules per coulomb is not the same thing as KVA, kilovoltamperes, or kilojoules per second, and no direct comparison exists. Please restate the question.
Show solution of conversion of 1KVA to watts.?
1kva means 1kv per ampere therefore 1 amp flowing and 1 kv deduce to be the product of the two or 1kw
How do you calculate XL-PE cable size for 6.6 KV 300 KW motor?
Find out how much current the motor draws, then look up wire tables to find out the size of wire. Ask an electrician if you are not unfamiliar with this because working at 6.6 kV is definitely lethal for the unqualified.
What is the full load amps of a generator that is 300 kw and is 375 kva?
Full load amps for a three phase, 375KVA generator is 375 / (voltage in kV) / sqrt(3).
How to convert from kV into kW?
Multiply by Amps.
What is the difference between bkW and kW?
no difference
How many kv are equal to one megawatt?
Considering it is kw for kilowatt and not kv. 1 megawatt = 1000 kilowatt.
What is the difference between Kc and Kw for water?
Kc is the constant for concentration and Kw is the constant for water. Kc[h20] = [OH-][H+] which becomes Kw= [OH-][H+]
What is the difference bewten KV And KWH?
KV is kiloVolt and KWH is KiloWatt Hour
What is the difference between the single line diagram of a 33 kV substation and a 66 kV substation and if possible then please provide the S.L.D. of both substations?
basically there will not be any difference between them. the capacity of equipment will be more such as the CB rating will be more basically there will not be any difference between them. the capacity of equipment will be more such as the CB rating will be more
Voltage of a cable is 220 kv what does this mean?
The lower-case 'k' in 'kV' (not 'kv') is a multiplier, representing 'kilo', meaning 'a thousand times', and the upper-case 'V' represents 'volts', the SI unit for potential difference. So a '220-kV' cable has a line voltage (voltage between conductors) of 220 kV.
Can direct current kW be converted to KVA?
With a dc system the kW are always equal to the kV times the amps. It's only with ac that the kW are usually less than the kVA by a factor called the power factor.
What is Kvr?
kV is kilovolts, kW is kilowatts, kVA is kilovolt amps and kVAR is kilovolt-amps reactive. A common formula is kVA-squared = kW-squared + kVAR-squared.
How many kv is 850kw?
"kV" is referring to voltage, "KW" is referring to power. This is synonomous with asking "how many apples are in the tree?" without giving any more information about the tree, or back to your question, the current.
What size electrical wire for 6500 kw to 240 v?
6500 kW at 240 v would need 6,500,000/240 amps, in other words 27,000 amps. That is not practicable. This amount of power would need to be supplied at a much higher voltage, e.g. 11 kV or 33 kV, 3-phase.
How do you tell the difference from 13.2 kv power line to 4.8 kv power line?
The higher-voltage line will have longer insulators and the line conductors will be further apart. And the symbol for kilovolt is 'kV', not 'kv'.
