How can measure transformer KVA?
the capacity of a transformer is defined as a product of voltage and current flowing through it.AS THE CURRENT IS MEASURED IN AMPERES AND VOLTAGE IN VOLTS, Hence transformers are measured/rated in KVA
What are three requirement for connecting the transformer in paralle?
Transformer capacity (kvA) shall be identical, Both transformer impedance, secondary voltage and frequency shall be identical.
How do you earth in the 1600 kva transformer?
In 1600 kva transformer we provide NGR (Neutral grounding resistance)
Can you use 20 kva transformer in a home?
Yes you could use a 20 kva transformer in a home. Stymied as to why it would be done though. You would need at least a 100 amp service to the home to energize the transformer. Primary side of the transformer would draw 83 amps at 240 volts. If the question was to supply the home, again yes. It would be 100 amp service equipment that the transformer would feed into.
Why transformer rating is called kva not kw?
Transformers are rated in KVA because that is a more accurate way to measure their capacity requirements. KWH is apparent power, while KVA is true power, and the ratio between them is power factor. The power factor is a function of the load, and not the transformer, so a poor power factor would make KWA look less to the transformer while, in fact, the true power, if not met by the transformer, could overload the transformer.
Why you are indicating capacity of transformer in KVA?
transformer action doesn't depend on power factor that is why we indicate its rating in KVA
What is the 3-phase step-down transformer capacity in kVA 380V-220V for 4.5kW motor?
5 kva

What is the difference between a 1.5KVA and a 3KVA transformer?
The 3 kVA transformer will weigh double the 1.5 kVA transformer.
Why does the primary side of a step down transformer burn out and not the secondary of a 480V to 240V transformer?
Sounds like the wrong size fuse protection was used. The transformer should be protected to its kva capacity.
What is the kw of 100kva transformer and how you calculate?
The kW rating of a transformer can be calculated by multiplying the kVA rating by the power factor. For example, if the power factor is 0.8, then the kW rating of a 100 kVA transformer would be 80 kW. You can also use the formula: kW = kVA x power factor.

What is the KVA rating required of the testing transformer?
Depends on the kva rating of the devices to be tested using a transformer.
What is the result when 3 kva power requirement is being supplied by 250 kva transformer?
The result is that the transformer runs cool and contented. The '250 KVA' rating on the transformer is its maximum ability to transfer power from its input to its output without overheating, NOT an amount of power always running through it. If the 3 KVA load happens to be the only thing connected to the transformer at the time, then only 3 KVA flows into the transformer from the primary line, and only 3 KVA leaves the transformer secondary.
Can you use 20 kva transformer in a home?

What size wire 100 kva transformer?
Wire sizing of a feed conductor is based on the amperage that a device draws. To calculate amperage from KVA a voltage of the supply has to be stated. Without this voltage and whether the transformer is single or three phase an answer can not be given.
