Real Power Calculation

Real Power Calculation

This web page can be used to calculate the real power (kw) of a single phase or three phase load. Use Table one for three phase calculations, and use Table two for single phase calculations. The three phase load calculations assume the load is balanced.

Table 1 - Calculation of Total Power Three Phase Loads Known Variables: Load Voltage, Load Current, Load Power Factor Angle


Input System Line-Line Voltage (kv)
Input line current (amps)
Input power factor angle of load (degrees)
Calculated Real Power (kva)

Known Variables: Total Power (kva), Reactive Power (kvar)


Input Three Phase Total Power (kva)
Input Three Phase Reactive Power (kvar)
Calculated Power (kw)

Table 2 - Calculation of Total Power Single Phase Loads� Known Variables: Load Voltage, Load Current, and Power Factor Angle of Load


Input System Line to Neutral Voltage (kv)
Input Line Current (amps)
Input Power Factor Angle (degrees)
Calculated Total Power (kw)

Known Variables: Real Power, Reactive Power


Input Single Phase Total Power (kva)
Input Single Phase Reactive Power (kvar)
Calculated Power (kw)
