The SEER metric is used to measure a heating and cooling systems performance, which is determined largely by the HVAC equipment operating efficiency. SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating.

If your original central air conditioner was undersized at 3 ton but cools ok and you install a 3 ton two stage heat pump will the first stage be big enough to add in your basement or 2600 sf total?

The total tonnage is still 3. I would say no to 2600sf.


Is my home air conditioner damaged if serviceman mixed R22 with R-410A?

Probably not, how long did it run before the mix up was discovered? All of the refrigerant has to come out and be properly disposed of, then a good evacuation and recharge. You did not say which refrigerant was the correct one for the machine, but either way it all has to go.

Can you connect two air conditioner on single phase power supply?

US NEC: You can connect two air conditioners on a single phase power supply, but... The correct question is probably, "Can you connect two air conditioners to a single distribution circuit?". The answer is no - any substantial load requires its own distribution circuit.


30MVA power transformer can uprated to what extend?

You need to discuss with a transformer manufacturer, because modifications will need to be made. The transformer name plate will say the top rating of the transformer (I'm assuming in this case it is 30MVA). This top rating is generally limitted by heating. So to uprate, you need to modify the cooling system - add more or bigger fans, add pumps, etc. In my area, loading as high as 125% of max rating of transformers is allowed on a "short term" basis (in general), which gives system operators time to shift load without dropping customers. If 30MVA is the base rating, I see typical values of 166% and 186% for ONAF1 and ONAF2 (oil natural, air forced level #1 and #2). This is something that is specified when ordering the transformer, so it may be different in your case (look at the nameplate!). The 30MVA base transformers I've seen, therefore are rated at 30/49.8/56MVA (at 65 degree C).

Why Refrigerators quantity is expressed in liters but air conditioners in tons?

The buyer of a refrigerator wants to know its volumetric capacity because that tells him/her how much can be stored in it. It doesn't say anything about the rating in watts. Air conditioners are specified in BTU/hour, or kw, I don't recognise tonnes, unless you mean tonnes of air. The essential interest in an air conditioner is usually how much cool air it can deliver and that depends on its power rating, not its dimensions
