Star (or 'wye') connected alternators have a phase voltage of 6.35 kV, and a line voltage of 11 kV. Incidentally, it's 'kV', not 'KV'.
Yes of course. The electrical grid in Honduras has 1,133 km of lines of 230 kV, 919 km of 138 kV, with distribution at 13.8 kV and 35.5 kV.
It isn't necessarily the case. In the UK electricity distribution system, you have 33/11-kV step-down tranformers (where 11 kV is the secondary side) or 11-kV/400-230-V step-up transformers (where 11 kV is the primary side).
Multiples of 11 kV are used in many countries. The idea is to deliver a round number of volts so you add on 10% to allow for line losses. So 10 kV becomes 11 kV. In practice lines are operated without a 10% voltage drop now because it represents an unacceptable waste of energy, but we have stuck with 11 kV etc. Common supply voltages used for area distribution are 6.6 kV, 11 kV, 33 kV, 66 kV and 132 kV.
KV is the abbreviation for kilovolts. The prefix kilo means thousands, so 220 kv means 220 kilovolts, or 220,000 volts.
Basically the formula is I = P / V where I = amps, P = power (kV) and V = volts for a single phase 11 kV genset the formula is 11000/400 = 27.5 amps max load. For a 3 PHASE GEN then 11000x0.8/400/3 = 7.3 amps per phase.

25 kV single phase 50 Hz is common in railway systems in the UK.
240 volts is usually available from the standard single phase service supplied to the incoming main breaker panel within residential properties in most countries which use 60 Hz power. If 11 KV comes into a town from the distribution network coming from the national grid supplied by many generating stations, and 11 KV/400V 3 phase transformers are used for local area distribution within the town, then the line voltage from any single phase to neutral will be 230 volts.
Nominal transmission and distribution voltages are line voltages. So '66 kV' is a line-to-line voltage. Note that there is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage -the correct term is 'line-to-line'. Using the term, 'phase-to-phase', indicates a lack of understanding of a.c., which is not uncommon! Incidentally, the symbol is 'kV', not 'KV'.
Answer for UK, Europe and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.HT and LT means high and low tension.LT customers take their supply at the normal street voltage of 240 volts single-phase or 415 v three-phase.HT customers take their supply at higher voltages, in the UK these are usually 11 kV, 33 kV and 132 kV.
.230kvAnswerThe nominal supply voltage to a residence depends on the national electrical standards in the country in which you live, but no residential single-phase supply exist in the kilovolt range. European countries have a standard nominal voltage of 230 V (which you could express as 0.230 kV, if you really wanted to!) and the US and Canada have a nominal 240/120 V supply voltage.And the correct symbol for kilovolts is 'kV', not'kv'.
Yes of course. The electrical grid in Honduras has 1,133 km of lines of 230 kV, 919 km of 138 kV, with distribution at 13.8 kV and 35.5 kV.
For single-phase supplies, 120 v or 230 v or 240 v. For larger buildings with a three-phase supply, 208 v or 400 v, 415 v or 480 v. For very large buildings higher voltages e.g. 3.3 kV, 11 kV, or for huge factories 33 kV. In special cases buildings needing an unusual amount of power are fed at 110 kV.
