A 6kVA generator puts out 4.8kW (4800 watts) with a power factor of 0.8
Formula
w (watts) x pf (power factor) = VA (volt amps)
This generator will be able to draw a load of 20A (amps)
6kVA = 6000VA. Where watts is only a measurement of "real power" used (eg: Heater element) VA is a measurement of total current that will flow through a circut. (eg: capacitor) A capacitor does not use power (kW) but current does flow in a circut where capacitor is connected. kVA ratings would be used to size cables.
No it will not run
KVA=KW*Power factor, considering PF 0.9, 6KVA=KW*0.9 KW=6/.9=6.67
7.5kVA is a value derived from the voltage multiplied by the current. Without knowing one, you cannot know the other. For example, think of the number 10kVA This could be made by :10kV * 1A or 5kV * 2A or 1kV * 10A or 2kV * 5A. You couldn't possibly know which is the initial pair.
use 1.0 as your PF Understand that K=1000, so KVA simply means thousands of volts times amps. First, multiply KVA by 1000 to get VA, then divide by the voltage of the system to get amps. Example: 6KVA, 240V single-phase. 6 * 1000 = 6000 VA 6000 / 240 = 25A
No it will not run
1.5litres/hr full load at 40% efficiency
Six KVA is the same as 6000 watts. As you can see, the appliances have to be totaled up to the amount of 6000 watts to see how many can be used. Each device has its own wattage on the manufactures label and it is usually different for different appliances.
In Australia @ 240v NO. Well not from a 6.5Kva scorpion 10hp diesel gen. 100% overload short term, don't think so. 6.5Kva is about 5000w. 3hp compressor near full load is just over 4000w. But needs around 10,000 12,000 watts to start, maybe even more in certain conditions. It may start with a quality genset of same size but I would doubt it.
There are zero watts in 700 volts.
