Current From kW Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Current From kW.
Ikw = KW *1000 / V
- Where Ikw is the Current From kW (amps)
- KW is the total kilowatts (kW)
- V is the total voltage (volts)
To calculate the current from kW, multiply the kilo-watts by 1000, then divide by the voltage.
How to Calculate Current From kW?
The following two example problems outline how to calculate the Current From kW.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total kilowatts (kW). In this example, the total kilowatts (kW) is measured to be 5.
- Next, determine the total voltage (volts). For this problem, the total voltage (volts) is calculated to be 100.
- Finally, calculate the Current From kW using the formula above:
Ikw = KW *1000 / V
Inserting the values from above and solving the equation with the imputed values gives:
Ikw = 5 *1000 / 100 = 50 (amps)
Example Problem #2:
Using the same process as example problem 1, we first define the variables outlined by the formula. In this case, the values are:
total kilowatts (kW) = 3
total voltage (volts) = 50
Entering these values into the formula above gives us::
Ikw = 3*1000 / 50 = 60 (amps)
