In a DC circuit Power (P) in watts is equal to Voltage (E) times Current (I).

1000 Watt = 1 kW

P = EI thus I= P/E

For kW then I = (P x 1000)/E

Example with Power of 2 kW and Voltage of 250 V DC:

I = (2000/250) = 8 Amp

What is 499 kw at 208 volts in amps?

To calculate the current in amps, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 499 kW at 208 volts, first convert kilowatts to watts: 499 kW = 499,000 watts. Then, divide by the voltage: 499,000 watts / 208 volts = approximately 2395.19 amps.


480v 130kw how many amps?

Amps = Watts / Volts Amps = 130000 / 480 Amps = 270.83


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.


How many amps for a 13.8 kw cooker?

The formula you are looking for is Amps = kW x 1000/1.73 x Volts x pf. The pf (power factor) of resistance heating will be 1. If the cooker was rated in kVA the same formula would be used minus the pf.


How do you calculate load in KW?

You have to know 2 things in order to perform the calculation. You will need to know the power (KW) and either the amps or the voltage. If you know voltage you can determine amps and if you know amps you can determine voltage. However with solely the KW you do not have enough information to calculate either. Here is the formula: 1 Phase: KW = (E x I x pf)/ 1000 3 Phase: KW = (1.732 x E x I x pf)/1000 Where E is voltage, I is current, and pf is Power Factor


How do you calculate kw in three phase generator?

Use the following equation, kW = Amps x Volts x 1.73 x pf/1000.


Convert 15 amps 415v to kw?

To convert 15 amps at 415 volts to kilowatts, use the formula: kW = (amps x volts) / 1000. So, kW = (15 A x 415 V) / 1000 = 6.225 kW.


How many KW in 32amps?

There are zero kW in 32 amps. Watts are the product of amps times volts. Once you find the voltage of the system multiply it times 32 amps and then divide that answer by 1000. This will give you the answer in kW.


How many amp is 4 kw?

To calculate the amperage for 4 kW, you would need to know the voltage of the circuit. However, assuming a standard voltage of 120V, you can use the formula: amps = watts / volts. Therefore, for 4 kW at 120V, the amperage would be approximately 33.33 amps.


How to convert from kV into kW?

Multiply by Amps.
