What does one kilovolt ampere (kV*A) represent?

It is a unit of apparent power in AC systems equal to 1,000 volt-amperes, quantifying the product of RMS voltage and current without considering phase difference.

Why convert kilovolt ampere to microjoule per second?

To express large-scale apparent power in very small, precise units used in microelectronics, photonics, and low-power device contexts.

Are power factor and phase angle included in this conversion?

No, kilovolt ampere includes reactive components but this conversion does not adjust for power factor or phase angle.
