In this article I will show you how to convert 850 volt-amperes into kilovolt-amperes. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 850 va to kva. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Volt-amperes to Kilovolt-amperes
A volt-ampere is smaller than a kilovolt-ampere. I know that a va is smaller than a kva because of something called conversion factors.
Put very simply, a conversion factor is a number that can be used to change one set of units to another, by multiplying or dividing it. So when we need to convert 850 volt-amperes into kilovolt-amperes, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for va to kva is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 850 va to kva by multiplying 0.001
by the number of volt-amperes we have, which is 850.
So, the answer to the question "what is 850 volt-amperes in kilovolt-amperes?" is 0.85 kva.

Best Conversion Unit for 850 va
Sometimes when you work with conversions from one unit to another, the numbers can get a little confusing. Especially when dealing with really large numbers.
I've also calculated what the best unit of measurement is for 850 va.
To determine which unit is best, I decided to define that as being the unit of measurement which is as low as possible, without going below 1. Smaller numbers are more easily understood and can make it easier for you to understand the measurement.
The best unit of measurement I have found for 850 va is volt-amperes and the amount is 850 va.
