Convert horsepower (water) to volt ampere
Please provide values below to convert horsepower (water) [hp (water)] to volt ampere [V*A], or Convert volt ampere to horsepower (water).
1 hp (water) = 746.043 V*A. To convert horsepower (water) to volt ampere, multiply the value by 746.043; to go the other way, divide by it (1 V*A = 0.00134040531176 hp (water)). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 hp (water) = 746.043 V*A
- 1 V*A = 0.00134040531176 hp (water)
- 10 hp (water) = 7460.43 V*A
- 100 hp (water) = 74604.3 V*A
How to Convert Horsepower (Water) to Volt Ampere
1 hp (water) = 746.043 V*A
Example: convert 15 hp (water) to V*A:
15 hp (water) = 15 × 746.043 V*A = 11190.645 V*A

Horsepower (Water)
Horsepower (water) is a unit of power used to measure the rate of water flow or energy transfer, based on the power exerted by a water stream.
History/Origin
The water horsepower originated in the 19th century as a way to quantify the power of water wheels and turbines, with its value historically linked to the energy produced by a specific flow of water under certain conditions.
Current Use
Today, water horsepower is primarily used in hydraulic engineering and water power industries to specify the capacity of water turbines, pumps, and other hydraulic equipment.
Volt Ampere
Volt ampere (V·A) is a unit of apparent power in an electrical circuit, representing the product of voltage and current without considering power factor.
History/Origin
The volt ampere was established as a unit of apparent power with the development of electrical engineering, particularly as a measure in alternating current (AC) systems. It is derived from the SI units volt (V) and ampere (A).
Current Use
Volt ampere is used to quantify apparent power in AC electrical systems, especially in the context of transformers, generators, and power supplies, to assess capacity and performance.
