What is the power of AC generators measured in kW or kVA?
Yes, you can use both, but watts is more useful; it provides the total amount of power the generator can output.
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
What is the Watts of A generator rated at 220 Volts and 6Kva and what is Kva?
A 6kVA generator puts out 4.8kW (4800 watts) with a power factor of 0.8 Formula w (watts) x pf (power factor) = VA (volt amps) This generator will be able to draw a load of 20A (amps) 6kVA = 6000VA. Where watts is only a measurement of "real power" used (eg: Heater element) VA is a measurement of total current that will flow through a circut. (eg: capacitor) A capacitor does not use power (kW) but current does flow in a circut where capacitor is connected. kVA ratings would be used to size cables.
Why you not usually use induction generator?
we do not use induction generator because it require an external source (synchronous generator) that provide reactive power to it.
What is dc separately excited shunt generator?
Either or both can be separately excited. To generate voltage you need a big magnet( the field). Most generators use an electro-magnet. Now the electro-magnet needs a source of power (electricity). We could use the generators own output to excite the field (magnet), this is called self excitation. The problem with self excitation is that we have to wait for the generator to turn and start generating, also to start generating (Building up) there must be some left over magnetism from the last time it was run (called residual magnetism) or not even a little voltage will be generated to start the field current flowing. To solve these problems we could use separately excited. This means we must have a separate source of power to excite the field to produce the magnetism. Sometimes a battery or gasoline driven generator is used to excite the field of a very large generator to get it generating and then we can use some of the generated output to either recharge the battery or switch over to from the battery. In any case we have adjustable control of the generator all the time. This is why most generators are designed to be separately excited. And that is why you car has a voltage regulator. It wakes up the alternator when the engine is started by separately exciting it (the field) with the battery and then regulates the output voltage of the alternator as the engine changes speed with the driver's commands from the gas pedal.
What capacitor do you use in your 5 kva generator?
runing capasitor
Which cable eed to use for a 500 kva generator?
4core*240mm square..
What will happen if you use 50 KVA generator when your requirement is 90 KVA?
If you take out too much power, the generator will probably get damaged. In the best of cases, it has a built-in protection, and shuts down before it gets damaged. In any case, you should avoid taking out more power than the generator can handle; also, you should get a more powerful generator. Or reduce your use.

What size of wire to use for 1015 kva ac generator?
To answer this question a voltage must be given to find the current output. Also whether the generator is three phase or single phase.
What size generator do you need for a 250 hp 480V motor that had a across the line starter?
The first thing that is required is the amperage of the motor. I = HP x 746/1.73 x E x %eff x pf. This comes to about 277 amps. The second formula to use to find KVA is KVA = I x E x 1.73/1000 = 277 x 480 x 1.73/1000 = 230. The minimum size generator will be 230 KVA.
Are there any devices that can charge up a car battery besides an alternator?
older cars had a generator ,not an alternator, but you can always use a battery charger to charge a battery
Can you use a1000w saw with a 2.8kva generator?
A volt-amp (va) is the same as a watt (w). A 2.8 kva generator can provide 2800 w of power which is more than sufficient for a 1000 w saw, as long as the safety circuit breaker on the generator can handle the load. Short answer, yes.

What size generator do you need for a 700 amp farm everyday use?
Answer for UK, Europe and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.A farm that takes a 700-amp supply on 3-phase 415 volts is a big farm drawing 500 kVA so it really needs a 750 kVA generator that would be expected to use 60-70 gallons of diesel per hour. It should be noted that 3 phase 415 volts is a 50 Hertz generated supply.At lower voltages the power drawn would be less, but the answer is independent of the supply frequency.Answer for countries running a 60 Hz supply service.A farm that takes a 700-amp supply on 3-phase 208 volts is a farm drawing 250 kVA that needs a 300-350 kVA generator. It would be expected to use 30-40 gallons of diesel per hour.
How does the alternator recharge the battery?
An alternator is just a small generator that generates AC power and is converted to 12v DC power via a transformer for battery storage and use.
Can you use a 12v 14amp battery on my MZ 125 even though the manual advises a 12v 9 amp. Its just that i want to add a few extra electrical bits to the bike.?
The battery is there for when the bike is not running and the generator is not working. You might need a bigger generator rather than a bigger battery.
