Amps to kW Calculator (AC Single Phase)
What is an Amps to kW Calculator (AC Single Phase)?
An Amps to kW Calculator for AC Single Phase is an electronic device supposed to take electrical current measured in Amps and convert it into power output measured in kilowatts. Therefore, it is used in electrical engineering, home appliance sizing, and power management to assist a user in computing the output in a given power in devices that apply AC single-phase systems.
You can convert Amps to kW manually using the following formula.
Amps to kW Conversion (AC Single Phase)
Formula: Amps to Kilowatts (kW)
To calculate power in kilowatts (kW) using current (I) in amps, voltage (V) in volts, and power factor (PF):
\[ P(\text{kW}) = \frac{{PF \times I \times V}}{1000} \]
Where:
- \( P \) = Power in kilowatts (kW)
- \( PF \) = Power factor (dimensionless, between 0 and 1)
- \( I \) = Current in amps (A)
- \( V \) = Voltage in volts (V)
Example Calculation
If the power factor is 0.8, the current is 10 amps, and the voltage is 220 volts:
\[ P(\text{kW}) = \frac{{0.8 \times 10 \times 220}}{1000} = 1.76 \text{ kW} \]
How Does Amps to kW Calculator Work?
- Step 1:Â Enter the current in amps (A).
- Step 2:Â Enter the voltage in volts (V).
- Step 3:Â Select the power factor (PF) value.
- Step 4:Â Press calculate or view the result directly.
- Result:Â The calculator will display the power in kilowatts (kW) based on your inputs.
