I have a Unit working at 6.5 Amps, 3 phase. I want to calculate the Power Consumption of the Unit. If I can get the formula by which the same is calculated.

The Formula is the most important.

I would be grateful, for a very quick reply.

What type of device is being used?

[tkrussell]

When you say power, there are two types, true, and apparent.

Which is that you are looking for?

[Credendovidis]

The power in a three-phase system is measured in volt-amps. The formula used to calculate the power involved is:
.
Volt-amps = Sq. root of 3 x voltage (volts) x current (amperes)
.
Assuming you use 3 phase 110 Volts :
.
VA = root of 110 x 110 x 110 x 6.5 = root of 8651500 = 2941 VA

That is the wackiest explanation of a this formula I have ever seen.

VA= SqRt of 3 * volts * amps

VA = 1.73 * 110 * 6.5

VA = 1236.95

For this example.

Althou, 110 volt 3 phase is very rare.

Difference between single phase & 3 phase cable

what type of load resistive or capacitive or inductive to know the power factory
which know as pf ( cosine the angle between phase current and phase voltage = cos fi)
the load is divided into two parts
1- active so, power = 3*current*phase voltage*cos fi P
2- inactive so, power = 3*current*phase voltage*sin fi S
overall power Q = Sq. root of( P^2+S^2)
