Learn how to use the Amps kilovoltamperes Calculator calculator and its working principles

How to Use This Calculator

  1. Enter the voltage (in Volts) of your electrical circuit in the first input field.
  2. Enter the current (in Amps) flowing through the circuit in the second input field.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the apparent power in kVA.
  4. The result will be displayed in the result field.
  5. Use the "Reset" button to clear all inputs and start over.

Working Principle

The calculator uses the formula for calculating apparent power (kVA), which is the product of voltage (Volts) and current (Amps), divided by 1000. Apparent power represents the total power consumed by an electrical load, including both real power (watts) and reactive power (VARs). It is an important parameter for sizing electrical equipment such as generators, transformers, and circuit breakers.

When to Use This Calculator

  • When sizing electrical panels or circuit breakers for equipment with known voltage and current requirements.
  • When determining the electrical load of a circuit or system.
  • When calculating the capacity requirements of electrical distribution systems.
  • When planning for electrical upgrades or expansions.
