KVA on generators
While flicking though a tool magazine, fell across the page on generators and it quoted a KVA figure.
Could someone please explain this figure to me ?
This was my guess:
KVA = kilovolts * amps
Voltage outputs were 230/110.
So let’s say we had a tool that required 230V at 5amps to work.
0.23*5=1.15 KVA?
So as long as the generator kicks out more than 1.15KVA the tool should run fine?
Am I right?
