Convert watts to volt-amperes
1 W = 1 VA — exactly. Both units are defined against the SI, so this factor is a fraction, not an approximation.
1VA
1 W = 1 VA
How to convert watts to volt-amperes
Multiply the number of watts by 1 to get volt-amperes.
The exact factor is 1 .
Volt-ampere: Apparent power. Numerically a watt, but it counts reactive current too.
