I received some sample voltage drop calculations from a peer that I am reviewing and am a little lost on a constant they are using to determine (VA).
Their equation is VA = 1.32(Power), in this case the power is the luminaire wattage (400W). Where is the 1.32 derived from?
The system is a 240/480V single phase system. A power factor of 0.9 was used.
Thank you.
