How to Convert Megavolt-Amperes (MVA) to Watts

To convert megavolt-amperes (MVA) to watts (W), you need to consider the power factor (PF), which relates real power (watts) to apparent power (volt-amperes). The formula is:

MVA to Watts Calculation Formula

The real power P in watts (W) is equal to the apparent power S in megavolt-amperes (MVA), multiplied by the power factor PF:

P(W) = S(MVA) ร— PF ร— 1,000,000

Thus, watts are equal to megavolt-amperes multiplied by the power factor:

W = MVA ร— PF ร— 1,000,000

Example Calculation

If you have an apparent power measurement of 2 MVA and a power factor of 0.85, the calculation would be:

P(W) = 2 MVA ร— 0.85 ร— 1,000,000 = 1,700,000 W
