100,000VA
That's 2× as big as a pole-mounted transformer, while a neighbourhood substation is 10× bigger.
What it means
How big a supply is that?
Watts, kilowatts and kvar depend on the power factor chosen above. Reference ratings are typical.
The math
How to convert kVA to VA
To convert kilovolt-amperes to volt-amperes, multiply by 1,000.
Example: 100 kVA × 1,000 = 100,000 VA.
In the other direction, 1 VA = 0.001 kVA.
The watts, kilowatts and kvar below assume 0.8 (generator rating). Change it above and every number updates.
