How to convert volt-amperes to horsepower (metric)s
Multiply the number of volt-amperes by 0.0013596216173 to get horsepower (metric)s.
Volt-ampere: Apparent power. Numerically a watt, but it counts reactive current too.
Horsepower (metric): 75 kgf·m/s — exactly 735.498 75 W. European car figures use this one.
