'VA', or more correctly, V.A, is not an electrical 'term'. Rather, it is the symbol for 'volt ampere', the unit of measurement for a quantity called 'apparent power'. This is the product of the supply-voltage and load current for an a.c. load.

Main difference between VA and W?

VA and W both are units of power. VA indicates the power is of an electrical nature. W does not distinguish whether the energy source is electrical, mechanical, magnetic, heat or otherwise.


What mean is 800va?

The term "800 VA" refers to a measure of apparent power in an electrical system, where "VA" stands for volt-amperes. It represents the product of voltage (in volts) and current (in amperes) in an AC circuit, indicating the total amount of power consumed by devices, regardless of the power factor. This measurement is crucial for understanding the capacity of transformers, inverters, and other electrical equipment. An 800 VA rating suggests that the device can handle a maximum of 800 volt-amperes of electrical load.
