Frequently Asked Questions

How many amps is 62 kVA at 415V (3-Phase)?

At 415V Three-Phase AC (UK / AU), 62 kVA equals 86.25 Amps at an industrial power factor of 0.85 (or 86.25 Amps at unity power factor 1.0).

What size breaker and wire is needed for 62 kVA at 415V?

For 86.25A continuous load, NEC requires a 125% rated breaker of 110A with 3 AWG copper conductors, while IEC standard sizing uses a 90A breaker with 25 mm² copper cable.
