In the case of my PD 40 amp converter PF is 0.7 so 40 amps x 14.4 volts / 0.7 = 823 watts.
Is that correct?Mandalay Parr wrote:
Actually VA times the power factor(pf) = Watts.
For practical purposes you can consider that watts is basically = to VAs
The correct answer is 40 X 14.4 X 0.7 = 403.2 watts.
