Amps to kilowatts conversion formula (AC three phase)
Amps to kilowatts conversion formula (AC
three phase)
The real
power P in
kilowatts is equal to square root of 3 times the power factor PF times
the phase current I in amps, times the line to
line RMS voltage VL-L in
volts divided by 1000:
P(kW) = √3 × PF × I(A) × VL-L(V) / 1000
So
kilowatts are equal to square root of 3 times power factor PF times amps times
volts divided by 1000:
kilowatt = √3 × PF × amp
× volt / 1000
or
kW = √3 × PF × A
× V / 1000
Example
What is
power consumption in kW when the power factor is 0.8 and the phase current is
3A and the RMS voltage supply is 110V?
Answer: the
power P is equal to square root of 3 times power factor of 0.8 times current of
3 amps times the voltage of 110 volts, divided by 1000.
P = √3 ×
0.8 × 3A × 110V / 1000 = 0.457kW
