There are several ways to convert a 240 volt input to a 1.5 volt output.

If the 240 volt input is alternating current (AC), a simple transformer can reduce the 240 volts to 1.5 volts (AC). A properly configured resistor or impedance coil in series with the input and output would also do the job but a tansformer also serves to isolate the output from the input offering greater protection for the 1.5 volt device. You If 1.5 volts direct current (DC) is required, a rectifier circuit is needed after the 1.5 volt AC output. If the source is 240 volts (DC), A resistance circuit in series can reduce the output voltage. You can also use electronic circuitry to chop of the 1.5 volts.

How do you convert 240 volts to 125 kVA?

To answer this question a current value needs to be given. 125000 is the product of amps times volts. I = W/E = 521 amps. So to bring 240 volts up to 125 KVA you need the circuit load to draw 521 amps.

How do you wire a L14-30 female to 2 r-15 male plugs?

You can't do that. An L14-30 is a 240/120 outlet and you cannot "make" 240 volts from two separate plugs; you have to have a hard-wired 240-volt source (either another type of outlet or wired directly to 240 volts).
