Amps to kW

Convert electrical current to real power — for single-phase and three-phase systems, including power factor.

Resistive loads ≈ 1, motors ≈ 0.8–0.95
Formulas
Single-phase: kW = (V × A × PF) ÷ 1000
Three-phase: kW = (√3 × V × A × PF) ÷ 1000

Tip: kVA ignores power factor — it’s the "apparent" power. kW is the "real" power that does the work.

⚡ Both directions

Amps to kW or kW to amps.

🏃 Three-phase ready

√3 factor applied automatically.

📖 Power factor
