1 kVA is 1000 VA. Apparent power is measured in VA which is a reactive (i.e. a mix of both capacitive
and inductive) load’s RMS voltage multiplied by the RMS current. True power is VA multiplied by the
power factor, and the power factor is the cosine of the phase angle between voltage and current. A
reactive load that draws an apparent power of 1000 VA and has a 0.5 power factor is consuming 500
watts of power. If a device were purely inductive, it would have a power factor 0. See also footnote 1, on
page 4.
