Resources / kVA Calculator

kVA ⇄ Amps calculator

Size a transformer from load current, or find full-load amps for a given kVA rating, three-phase and single-phase.

Rule of thumb: size the transformer so your continuous load sits at or below 80% of nameplate kVA, leaving headroom for inrush, growth, and harmonic heating. Harmonic-rich loads (VFDs, IT equipment) may also need a K-factor rating.

Enter load current to size your unit.

kVA = √3 × V × A ÷ 1,000 · Results are for preliminary sizing; confirm with your engineer of record.
