How to use the AC Power Calculator

  1. Enter or select: Voltage (RMS, line-to-line for 3-phase), Current (RMS), Power factor cos φ, System.
  2. The results (Apparent power S, Real power P, Reactive power Q, Phase angle φ) are calculated instantly as you type.
  3. Use “Copy link” to share the calculation with the same input values.

Formula

  • S = V·I (×√3 for three-phase)
  • P = S·cos φ, Q = S·sin φ
