Actually, the two are pretty much identical in actual power capacity:

40A 400V 3ph ~ 48KW
200A 240V 1ph ~ 48KW



Blink..blink...that would be 100 amps of 400 volts..wouldnt it?

you are short 60 amps somewhere...G

40A * 1.732 * 400v = 27712 (P=IE*1.732) since it is three phase.
200a * 1 * 240v = 48000 (P=IE*1) since it is three phase.


Did I get this right?
