I want to use the Power Factor Angle in the drive (read via Modbus) to calculate power output to the motor. What do I need to do to this value? The calcs I have used used just don't make sense. I would like to convert the final value to HP output to the motor. Any help would be appreciated.

You can take the current output amps and output voltage, and do the math.

Hp = Watts/746
Three Phase Motor Shaft Watts = Volts * Current * cos(Power Factor Angle) * Motor Efficiency * SquareRoot(3)
