Rating of transformer?
It's the apparent power (VA) it can deal with.
Why you are indicating capacity of transformer in KVA?
transformer action doesn't depend on power factor that is why we indicate its rating in KVA
What are common efficiencies for transformers?
Transformer utilization factor is the ration of power delivered to the load and ac rating of the transformer secondary.
What is the maximum transformer rating for distribution transformer?
100MVA
What happens when a light bulb is connected to the output coil of the transformer?
Assuming that the voltage rating of the lamp matches the rated secondary voltage of the transformer, the lamp will operate at its rated power.

How do you use the word rating in a sentence?
It was important that the power transformer had the correct rating for the job. A naval rating is an enlisted member of the navy.
What is mean KVA Rating of transformer?
copper loss is directly propostional to I (AMPERE) and iron loss directly propostional to V (VOLTAGE) then total losses is equal to volt ampere hence the rating of transformer in KVA. SULTAN
What are common efficiencies for transformers?
Transformer utilization factor is the ration of power delivered to the load and ac rating of the transformer secondary.
What can you do as preventative maintenance for a power pole transformer so that the mineral oil does not boil?
Lower the rating of the primary fuse feeding the transformer.
What is TUF for half wave rectifier?
It indicate how well the input transformer is being utilized. It is given by the ratio of DC output power to the AC power rating of Transformer.
Why the power factor of load is not fixed on the transformer?
Because the transformer designer does not know the power factors of the different loads that might be connected to it. The way round this probem is to specify the voltage and the maximum current that the transformer can supply, then multply them together and print the VA, kVA or MVA rating on the transformer. Then it's up to the user to comply with this rating to avoid damaging the transformer.
Why the rating of transformer in kva?
because we dont know power factor of the secondary laod
What is the minimum load have to go for a new transformer?
All transformers have a power rating given in kVA which determine the maximum load that can be connected to that transformer.
How do you calculate MVA rating of power transformer?
The product of the secondary rated current and the secondary rated voltage will give you the rated V.A of the transformer.
What is the use of transformer utilisation factor?
It tells us how much is the transformer utilised in a given process. For a rectifier,TUF =(D.c.power delivered to the load)/(power rating of transformer secondary)
