For normal power factors (pf=80%), you have 0.8 kW for every kva. In general however, kW = pf x kVA. Where pf is the power factor, it is the cosine of the angular difference between the voltage and the current of a circuit in alternating current circuits.
kvar = kva*sin@
kvar = kva*sin@
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.
When the power factor is leading, the capacitive kVAr is more than the Inductive kVAr and this still has to be supplied by the source. As kVA is the vector sum of kW and kVAr, still for the given kW, you have to produce more kVA. Alternately, for the given kVA, you can only convert partially into useful work. Secondary effects are voltage boost in the system, availability of stored energy to feed the fault in case of a fault, increase in the asymmetrical component of fault current, increasing thus the peak value of the fault current, etc.

kvar = kva*sin@
kvar = kva*sin@
kvar can be calculated as follows the a product KVA andt the sine of the angle between the KVA and KW.

The KVAR will be 1249.75, the power factor is .7. KVAR = sqrt [ KVA^2 - kW^2 ]
The same way, as you convert Appels to Carrots ........... There is a formula: KVAr = KVA / KW or cos=KW/KVA > Yes, we are treating KW, KVA, & KVAr as the 3 sides in a 90 deg TRIANGLE ! KW= vertical katede KVAr = horizontal katede KVA = hypotenuse
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.
The formula is that kW^2 + kVAR^2 equals kVA^2 or if you prefer, the kW and the kVAR are the two sides of a right angled triangle and the kVA is the hypotenuse. So here you have a 3-4-5 triangle times 140, in other words 420-560-700, and the kVAR is 420.

0 - 1000. KVA times a power factor gives you kilowatts, 1000 x watts. If the power factor is 0, then o watts make up your one kVA; if the power factor is 1, then 1000 watts make up your one kVA. Typical power factor is in the range of .8 to 1.
1000 VA = 1 kva
1000 VA = 1 kva
