The kVA to KW calculator helps you convert kilovolt-amps (kVA) into kilowatts (kW) easily and accurately.

This is useful for electrical systems where knowing the real power output is important. Real power (kW) is the amount of usable energy, while apparent power (kVA) includes both usable and wasted energy.

Formula:

The conversion formula is:

kW = kVA × Power Factor (PF)

Where:

• kW = Real power in kilowatts
• kVA = Apparent power in kilovolt-amps
• Power Factor = A number between 0 and 1, based on the type of load
  

A typical power factor is 0.8 for industrial equipment, but you can adjust this based on your needs.

Example:

If you have a 5 kVA device with a power factor of 0.8:

kW = 5 × 0.8 = 4 kW

This means the real usable power is 4 kilowatts.

How to Use the kVA to KW calculator?

1. Enter the value in kVA.
2. Input the power factor (default is 0.8).
3. Click the Convert button.
4. The result in kW will be shown instantly.
