Ampere Formula:

Using Horsepower, A = ( h * 746 ) / ( v * e ) ( For, Direct Current ) A = ( h * 746 ) / ( v * e * p ) ( For, Single Phase AC ) A = ( h * 746 ) / ( v * e * p * 2 ) ( For, Two Phase AC ) A = ( h * 746 ) / ( v * e * p * 1.73 ) ( For, Three Phase AC ) Using Kilowatts, A = ( kw * 1000 ) / ( v ) ( For, Direct Current ) A = ( kw * 1000 ) / ( v * p ) ( For, Single Phase AC ) A = ( kw * 1000 ) / ( v * p * 2 ) ( For, Two Phase AC ) A = ( kw * 1000 ) / ( v * p * 1.73 ) ( For, Three Phase AC ) Using Kilovolts Ampere, A = ( kva * 1000 ) / ( v ) ( For, Single Phase AC ) A = ( kva * 1000 ) / ( v * 2 ) ( For, Two Phase AC ) A = ( kva * 1000 ) / ( v * 1.73 ) ( For, Three Phase AC ) Where, A = Ampere kva = Kilovolt-Amp v = Voltage p = Power Factor e = Efficiency h = Horsepower kw = Kilowatts

Example

1. If the horsepower is 12, voltage 15, efficieny is 10 and power factor is 1, for a single phase AC

A = ( 12 * 746 ) / ( 15 * 10 * 1 )
        = 59.68
Therefore, the Ampere is 59.68

2. For a Two phase AC, if the kilowatts is 12, voltage is 15 and power factor is 1, then

A = (12 * 1000 ) / ( 15 * 1 * 2 )
        = 400
Therefore, the Ampere is 400

3. For a Three Phase Ac, if the Kilowatts Amp is 12 and Voltage is 15, then

A = ( 12 * 1000 ) / ( 15 * 1.73 )
= 462.43
Therefore, the Ampere is 462.43
