Answer / mariappan
Actually basic formula is
For 1 HP Motor = 3.77 KVA (required)
1 KVA = 0.8 KW
1 KW = 1.34 HP

Answer / simon
1 kva=1000w
1000w=250v*5amp
1 hp=735.5w so cal it

KVA is apparent power . It is equal to zero HP if the pf is zero. KVA X pf / 0.736 = HP

Answer / junbacs
if : 1 kva=0.8 kw and then: 1 kva/0.8 kw x 1 kw/1.34 hp =1kva=1.072hp
1 kw=1.34 hp
my answer is: there is 1.072 hp in 1 kva

Answer / raybuilders
kVA*pf*1000/746=HP
1hp=746watts
Pf means power factor, it simply mean how efficiently the device uses electricity.for motors-the industry standard is 60% while for other devices it is 80%.
Assuming it's not a motor and the kVA is 1
kVA*pf*1000=1*0.8*1000/746=1.1hp
If is a motor, hence.
1*0.6*1000/746=0.8hp
Regards.

Answer / gd thakur electrical engineer
1 hp is equal to .93 kva since 1 kva is 800 watt and 1 hp is 746 watt considering the power factor .8 generally the power factor considered is 0.8 what the actual kva required are 1.62 kva for 1 hp since starting current needs to be considered for in case of motor during initial torque the motor get connected in star winding during star conection motor draw √3 times more current than full load current

Answer / arjunan dharmaraj
1 HP is equal to 0.75 La
1 HP is 746 Watts ( 100% Machine Load)
So divide 746 Watts by one Kilo Volt Amps
746÷1000 = 0.746 La

Is there a possibility to use such a treshold voltage for the NMOS part of a CMOS circuit that during the switching it will start conducting only after the PMOS part will be already closed, by this eliminating the leakedge current? Please note, I'm not asking about the well bias in standby mode, but about the "antileakedge" measures during normal operation.
