Kilovolt-amps (kVA) to Volt-amps (VA) calculator and how to calculate
How to convert apparent power from kilovolt-amps (kVA) to volt-amps (VA)
The apparent power S (VA) is calculated by multiplying the apparent power (kVA) by 1000.
S(VA) = 1000 × S(kVA)
Therefore:
1 volt-ampere is equal to 1000 kilovolt-amperes
VA = 1000 × kilovolt-amps
or
VA = 1000 × kVA
Example One
Calculate the apparent power in volt-amps, given that the apparent power is 4kVA
Solution
S(VA) = 1000 × S(kVA)
S = 1000 × 4kVA = 4000VA
