Formulas

DC: kW to Amps

I(A) = 1000 × P(kW) ÷ V(V)

1000 × 596.64 ÷ 575 = 596,641 ÷ 575 = 1,037.64 A

AC Single Phase (PF = 0.85)

I(A) = 1000 × P(kW) ÷ (PF × V(V))

596,641 ÷ (0.85 × 575) = 596,641 ÷ 488.75 = 1,220.75 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

596,641 ÷ (1.732 × 0.85 × 575) = 596,641 ÷ 846.52 = 704.8 A

AC Conversion Comparison

On DC, 596.64kW at 575V draws 1,037.64A. AC single-phase at PF 0.85 pulls 1,220.75A because reactive current is added on top of the real power. Three-phase at the same voltage needs only 704.8A per line since the same 596.64kW is shared across three conductors instead of one.
