A transformer has separate ratings for voltage and current.
The voltage limit is set by the maximum magnetic flux-density in the iron core. The current limit is set by the resistance of the copper wire in the windings.
Multipy the two together to get the VA rating, divide by 1000 to get kVA.
What else can I help you with?
What is kva rating of single phase transformer?
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'.
Why transformer rated kva?
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.
What is the current of a 45 kva 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.
480 transformer to 120 ac current what is the kva on transfomer?
The kVA rating will be listed on the transformer's nameplate, which is usually on the front of the transformer. The 480v to 120v is irrelevant, because many transformers with different kVA ratings convert 480 volts to 120 volts. The kVA ratings can be different and thus affect the rated current through the transformer.
What is the full load current for1600 kva transformer?
It depends on the rated voltage. Take 1600 KVA and divide by KV, and you will get A.
How are transformer rated?
kva k-kilo v-voltage a-amps(current)
Why transformer are rated in kVA instead of KW?
Transformers are rated in VA or kVA. That is because the voltage is limited by the power loss in the magnetic core, and the current is limited by the power loss in the resistance of the windings. The rated voltage times the rated current gives the transformer's rating in kVA.
How many amps will a 37.5 KVA transformer carry?
It depends on the rated voltage of its secondary.
How can measure transformer KVA?
the capacity of a transformer is defined as a product of voltage and current flowing through it.AS THE CURRENT IS MEASURED IN AMPERES AND VOLTAGE IN VOLTS, Hence transformers are measured/rated in KVA
Does a transformer convert the current from 240 volts to 120 volt?
Transformers are rated in KVA or VA (volt-amps). They transform voltages from one value to another. The current in a transformer is inverse to the voltage. This is why transformers are rated in KVA and smaller ones in VA.
What is the difference between a 1.5KVA and a 3KVA transformer?
The 3 kVA transformer will weigh double the 1.5 kVA transformer.
Why transformer is rated inkva?
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'.
