Formulas

DC: kW to Amps

I(A) = 1000 × P(kW) ÷ V(V)

1000 × 574.18 ÷ 400 = 574,175 ÷ 400 = 1,435.44 A

AC Single Phase (PF = 0.85)

I(A) = 1000 × P(kW) ÷ (PF × V(V))

574,175 ÷ (0.85 × 400) = 574,175 ÷ 340 = 1,688.75 A

AC Three Phase (PF = 0.85)

I(A) = 1000 × P(kW) ÷ (√3 × PF × VL-L), where VL-L is the line-to-line voltage

574,175 ÷ (1.732 × 0.85 × 400) = 574,175 ÷ 588.88 = 975 A

AC Conversion Comparison

On DC, 574.18kW at 400V draws 1,435.44A. AC single-phase at PF 0.85 pulls 1,688.75A because reactive current is added on top of the real power. Three-phase at the same voltage needs only 975A per line since the same 574.18kW is shared across three conductors instead of one.
