Answer:
15.34 kVA
Explanation:
A motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. It takes in electrical energy at the input and produce torque (motion) at the output.
The power consumption for a three phase motor is the product of voltage and current and √3. The √3 is because it is a three phase supply.
Hence Power (P) =√3 × voltage (V) × current (I)
P = √3 × V × I
Given that voltage (V) = 460 V, current (I) = 17 A. Hence:
P = √3 × V × I = √3 × 460 × 17 = 13544.64 VA
But 1000 VA = 1 kVA. Hence:
