Volt-Ampere (VA) represents the measurement of apparent power in an electrical circuit, combining both voltage and current. Unlike watts, which measure real power, VA accounts for the total power in alternating current (AC) systems, including both active and reactive components. This distinction is crucial for understanding the overall energy flow and efficiency in AC circuits. By quantifying the potential energy that could be used in a circuit, Volt-Amperes help in designing and optimizing electrical systems, ensuring components are appropriately rated to handle the expected power load.
Definition of Btu/minuteBtu/minute, or British Thermal Units per minute, measures the rate of heat energy transfer. A single Btu is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. When expressed as Btu/minute, it indicates how much energy is being transferred every minute, commonly used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industries. Understanding this unit aids in assessing the efficiency and capacity of heating and cooling systems, enabling better design, operation, and management of thermal energy resources.

400 VA | 22.72 Btu/min |
500 VA | 28.4 Btu/min |
600 VA | 34.08 Btu/min |
700 VA | 39.76 Btu/min |
1 VA = 0.0568 Btu/min
1 Btu/min = 17.6 VA
Example 1:
Convert 100 VA to Btu/min:
100 VA = 100 × 0.0568 Btu/min = 5.68 Btu/min
Example 2:
Convert 300 VA to Btu/min:
300 VA = 300 × 0.0568 Btu/min = 17.04 Btu/min
