The product of the secondary rated current and the secondary rated voltage will give you the rated V.A of the transformer.
There is no 'standard' output current from a transformer. The secondary (output) current depends on the load, and should not exceed the rated secondary current. To find the rated secondary current, you divide the transformer's rated volt amperes by the rated secondary voltage. The above cited answer need more descriptive ; a) V/Z = I, b) V/Z = I + Magnetizing current of the transformer taken from Primary side of the transformer.
Presumably, you are asking what is the rated secondary current for a 45 kV.A (not 'kva') transformer? The answer depends on its rated secondary voltage. To obtain the rated secondary current, you divide the (apparent) power rating by its secondary rated voltage.
The mechanical load of a motor determines the necessary output power rating of an electric motor. As mechanical loads are defined in terms of watts (or, in North America, horse power), then motor's output must be rated in watts, too.The so-called 'power' rating of a transformer is determined by the rated voltage and the rated current of its secondary winding. The product of these two quantities is the transformer's rated 'apparent power', expressed in volt amperes.Incidentally, the symbol for "kilowatts" is "kW", not"KW's"!
The secondary current of a transformer is determined by the load and the secondary voltage applied to that load, and this, in turn, will determine the primary current by the inverse of the turns ratio. However, if you are asking about a transformer's rated secondary and primary currents, then you need to divide the transformer's apparent power rating (expressed in volt amperes) by the rated secondary and primary voltages respectively.
Average 8-15 years for the sign, and 5-7 years for the transformer. The transformer can be replaced. The neon can be recharged.
You cannot 'change' the 'rated power' of a transformer except by changing the transformer for another one. You can, though, operate the transformer below its rated power or, for short periods of time, operate the transformer aboveits rated power.
The correct symbol for kilovolt amperes is 'kV.A, not kva. A volt ampere is the product of the transformer's secondary rated voltage and its rated current. It is not rated in watts, because the transformer designer has no idea what sort of load is to be applied to the transformer, and it is the load that determines the amount of watts, not the transformer.
The product of the secondary rated current and the secondary rated voltage will give you the rated V.A of the transformer.
Presumably you are asking about the rated secondary current of a transformer rated at 2200 kV.A?This depends on the rated secondary voltage. You divide the rated apparent power of the transformer by the rated secondary voltage.Of course, the actual current depends on the load.
The ratings state the limits on voltage and current for operating the transformer at full load. The rated voltage times the rated current gives the rated VA of the transformer. Transormers are not usually rated directly for power because this depends on the power factor of the load applied.
This is the rated output of the transformer, obtained by multiplying the rated secondary voltage by the rated secondary current. And it's 'kV.A', not 'kva'.

Because it's the product of the transformer's rated secondary voltage and its rated secondary current. The product of voltage and current, in a.c., is the volt ampere.Incidentally, it's 'kV.A', not 'kva'.
You probably need an RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) filter either between the neon lighting transformer and the wall plug, or a transformer with a built-in RFI filter.
The output voltage of a transformer is not connected to the maximum rated current. You state that the transformer is rated at 12-0-12 at a current of 1A, therefore the maximum (rated) current on the secondary would be 1A. Normally, transformers are rated in VA (volt amps) which is simply voltage x current, the voltage across the two 12v terminals would be 12+12 volts, making the rating of the transformer 24VA.
