Frequently Asked Questions

How many amps is 102 kVA at 600V (3-Phase)?

At 600V Three-Phase AC (Canada / Heavy), 102 kVA equals 98.15 Amps at an industrial power factor of 0.85 (or 98.15 Amps at unity power factor 1.0).

What size breaker and wire is needed for 102 kVA at 600V?

For 98.15A continuous load, NEC requires a 125% rated breaker of 125A with 3 AWG copper conductors, while IEC standard sizing uses a 100A breaker with 25 mm² copper cable.
