Best Answer

1 horsepower = 745.7 watts. A kilovoltampere must be a kilowatt, so 1 horsepower = 0.7457 kilowatts

Further Answer

A kilovoltampere (kVA) is only equal to a kilowatt (kW) for a purely resistive load (or at unity power factor). So, if you know the power factor of the load, you can determine the true power in watts, and divide it by 745.7 to convert watts to horsepower.

How many ampere in one horsepower?

There are no 'volt amperes' in a horsepower. A volt ampere is used to measure 'apparent power', which is an electrical quantity. In other words, you are trying to compare apples with Oranges. You can convert watts to horsepower, because they both measure the same thing: power.


What is is kva?

kVA is kilo-volt-ampere, which is 1000 x volt x ampere. kVA is the unit of apparent power in AC circuits.


How much is 900 watts?

About as much as 15 typical (60watt each) light bulbs together. Or expressed in horsepower: about 1.2Hp Mains volts and ampere: 230 volt at 3.91 ampere = 900watt 110 volt at 8.18 ampere = 900watt


How you will convert kilo volt ampere to brake horse power?

BKW=(Q(m3/hr)*H(m)*S.G.)/(pump effiecency*367)


What is the same on both sides of any transformer?

frequency. KVA is also same in both side of a transformer!!! KVA means Kilo Volt Ampere.


Convret 1 volt to 1 kilo volt?

kilo means 1000 so multiply by 1000 to get from 1 volt to 1 kilo volt


Can I use 4.5 volt 2 ampere adaptor instead of 5 volt 2 ampere?

yes you can.


What is the full load loss of a 630 kilo volt ampere and primary voltage is 11000 VOLT and secondary voltage is 440 VOLT of a distribution transformer?

That type of transformer normally has about 99% efficiency so the full-load loss would be 1% or 6 kW.


What is the correct way to abbreviate kilo volt ampere kva Kva kVA?

It is common to see each of the examples used. However the technically correct way is kVA.AnswerFollowing the conventions of SI for compound units, a dot should be placed between the 'V' and the 'A', above base level: that is: kV.AThe symbols for units named in honour of individuals are always capitalised, so the symbol for volt is 'V', and the symbol for ampere is 'A'.Having said that, the symbol generally used for reactive volt amperes is var. So I suppose one could argue as neither the volt ampere or reactive volt ampere are really SI units, then they don't really have to follow SI conventions!


How do you convert volts to mva?

Do you mean 'megavolt ampere' (MV.A) or 'millivolt ampere' (mV.A)? By using the incorrect symbol ('mva'), this is not clear.To determine the apparent power, in volt amperes, you divide the true power, in watts, by the power factor of the load. One volt ampere is one-millionth of a megavolt ampere ('MV.A' -not 'mva') -assuming you don't mean 'millivolt ampere' ('mV.A')!


What is kilo amperes?

The correct expression is 'kilovolt amperes' (kV.A), and it is a multiple the unit of measurement ('volt ampere') for the apparent power of a load in an a.c. circuit -i.e. the product of supply voltage and load current.


How source of 6 volt gives 1 ampere current and source of 18 volt gives 0.5 ampere at same resistance is it violation of ohms law?

yes
