What is the equations to get KW of a generator?

The formulas you are looking for are, single phase kW = I x E x pf/1000. For three phase kW = I x E x 1.73 x pf/1000.


What is the full load amps of a generator that is 300 kw and is 375 kva?

Full load amps for a three phase, 375KVA generator is 375 / (voltage in kV) / sqrt(3).


How do you convert a single phase generator to a three phase generator?

You really can't without replacing the generator end (head) with an end wound for three phase. Three phase ends are not usually made for smaller generators. Of course, once the power leaves the generator, it could be applied to a static or rotary convertor same as is used with utility power. Make sure the generator has sufficient KW to run both the load and the convertor. I agree. You can't without a converter.


How do you calculate how to split a 7.5Kw load over 3 phases?

A 7.5 kW three phase load will be balanced by the manufacturer. When connected to a three phase source the line current on each phase will be equal.


What generator capacity can power a 30HP 60 HZ 3 phase dryer?

First you will need a three phase generator. Mathematically there are 746 Watts per horsepower, but I like to use 1000 Watts for ease of mental calculation. This would mean you would need a 30 kW generator. If using 746 Watts per HP, you would need 22380 Watts, or 23 kW. Make sure this 23 kW is the normal load rating of the generator, not the surge rating! 30 kW would provide more of a safety cushion.


How you calculate 3 phase generator required for 20 hp 3 phase motor?

To calculate the size of the generator required for a 20 hp 3-phase motor, you can use the formula: Generator kVA = Motor HP / Motor efficiency / Generator efficiency. Firstly, convert 20 hp to kW (20 hp x 0.746 = 14.92 kW). Assuming approximate motor efficiency of 85% and generator efficiency of 95%, you would need a generator of approximately 18.7 kVA.


What generator is suitable for a 2 HP single phase motor?

Any single-phase a.c. generator producing more than 2.5 HP or 2 kW - at the required voltage.


What is conversion of 4.6kva to kw?

Single-phase, 2.5 amps; three-phase 1.443 amps.


What is the size breaker per phase 200kva generator?

if you have 200 kva so it's 160 KW then ,you need 400 A MCCB and setting at 0.9 and use cable 4c.185 mm2 if the SMDB is nearby and all this will be change according to the ambient temperature and the electrical code used in your area


How do you figure kw in a three phase system?

The watt meter on three phase system is the same as the one on your house except that it monitors all three phases at once. The meter base is called a 7 jaw base which monitors the three phases and the neutral. The house meter is a 5 jaw meter. The watt meter is a totalizer which keeps track to the watts consumed by the dials on the face of the meter, which gets read monthly by the power supplier.


Concrete mixer whose motor got following configuration 5.5 KW 380v 1140 RPM 3 phase what is the suitable size of generator to run this motor?

You should get a 3 phase generator that has 8-12 KW. If you had to you could use a 3 phase 5.5-6 kw but it may wear out faster because you are using 100% power. The 3 phase gen will allow you to select 480 volt which can be converted to 380 for the mixer. The rpm of the motor in irrelevant because the generator is the power source in this situation, once the gen powers the motor it will produce 1140 to power the mixer.


Is it possible to convert a 2.4 kw single phase appliance to a 9kw 3 phase appliance?

No, it is not possible to convert a 2.4 kw single phase appliance to a 9kw 3 phase appliance. Single phase can not be converted to three phase with out considerable cost involved.
