I have a demand meter that is reading data in watts and power factor. In order to get the VA would I devide the PF into the watts?
 
Whoops!

KVA = Watts/pf

King, you are off by a factor of 1000!

Pa (VA) = Pr (watts)/PF
Pa (KVA) = Pr (KW)/PF

PF must be expressed as a decimal fraction.

Watch those kilos!
