What Is This Tool?

This converter helps you change power values from watts, which measure real power, to volt amperes, representing apparent power in alternating current circuits. It is useful in electrical engineering and power system design.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the power value in watts (W)
  • Select watt as the input unit and volt ampere as the output unit
  • Click convert to get the equivalent power in volt amperes (V*A)

Key Features

  • Converts power units from watt [W] to volt ampere [V*A]
  • Applicable in AC electrical system calculations and equipment ratings
  • Browser-based and easy to use

Examples

  • 50 watts equals 50 volt amperes
  • 150 watts equals 150 volt amperes

Common Use Cases

  • Understanding apparent power in AC electrical systems where power factor changes
  • Rating transformers, UPS, and generators
  • Sizing electrical distribution equipment accounting for voltage and current limits

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use this converter to distinguish between real power consumption and total power flow in AC systems
  • Remember that the conversion assumes a power factor of 1 (purely resistive load)
  • Apply this tool when planning transformer and generator ratings or electrical distribution networks

Limitations

  • The 1 W to 1 VA equivalence is accurate only when the power factor equals 1
  • For reactive loads, apparent power (VA) can exceed real power (W), so direct conversion may not reflect actual energy usage

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 1 watt represent?
One watt is the SI derived unit of power equal to one joule per second, measuring the rate of energy transfer or work done.

What is a volt ampere used for?
Volt ampere measures the apparent power in AC circuits, representing the product of RMS voltage and current regardless of phase angle.

Can I always convert watts directly to volt amperes?
Direct conversion is only exact when power factor is 1; for other power factors, volt amperes can be higher than watts.

Key Terminology

Watt [W]
The SI derived unit of power equal to one joule per second, measuring the rate of work done or energy transfer.
Volt ampere [V*A]
The unit of apparent power in AC circuits, calculated as the product of RMS voltage and RMS current.
Power Factor
A ratio indicating the phase angle difference between voltage and current; when equal to 1, real power equals apparent power.
