How to convert KVA rating into HP rating?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / sheeraz ali
It depends upon the power factor,
As 1HP =746 W =0.746 KW
and
apparent power (KVA)= Active power (W) / P.F
if P.F is 0.8 then,
KVA=0.746 / 0.8 = 0.9325
if P.F is 0.9 then,
KVA=0.746 / 0.9 = 0.8288

Answer / simon
For e.g 1 Kw=1000Wt
1000Wt=250 v*4 Amp (in 1 Phase)
1000Wt=440v*2.27Amp(in 3 Phase)
1 Hp=735.5Wt

what type of motor is used in fan
If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.
