    Useful Electrical Formulae for Determining Amperes, Horsepower, Kilowatts and Kilovolts Amperes Alternative Current Direct Current

    Amperes when Horsepower is known Single Phase Three Phase

    To find

    HP x 746 E x Eff

    HP x 746 E x Eff x PF

    HP x 746 1.73 x E xEff x PF

    Amperes when Kilowatts is known

    KW x 1000 E

    KW x 1000 E x PF

    KW x 1000 1.73 x E x PF

    Amperes when Kilovolt is known

    KVA x 1000 E

    KVA x 1000 E I x E x PF 1000 IxE 1000 I x E x Eff x PF 746

    KVA x 1000 1.73 x E I x E x 1.73 x PF 1000 I x E x 1.73 1000 I x E x 1.73 x Eff x PF 746

    Kilowatts

    IxE 1000 IxE 1000

    Kilovolt Amperes

    Horsepower(output)

    I x E x Eff 746

    Notes : I = Amperes E = Phase to phase volts Eff = Efficiency expressed as decimal (95% = 0.95) PF = Power factor expresses as decimal (85% = 0.85) KW = Kilowatts KVA = Kilovolt Amperes HP = Horsepower
