Only if it has it's own Power factor correction unit, Still a perfect power factor of 1 is hard to achieved. Common power factors are about 0.75 (it's like being 75% efficient, put in simple terms)

Which is a little difficult, still the motor would be running at its limit.

If this is to happen for short supervised conditions it could, but it would turn out to be unreliable if run continuously.

What size gas engine to run 35 kw generator?

At 746 watts per horsepower (electric) a 35 kw generator would require about 470 horsepower. Round that up, and allowing for control loop margin and mechanical losses, I would guess that a 35 kw generator should need a 500 or 600 horsepower engine.


What is4o kva for generator?

A 40 kVA generator refers to a generator with a power output capacity of 40 kilovolt-amperes. This measurement indicates the apparent power, which is a combination of real power (measured in kilowatts, kW) and reactive power. The actual usable power will depend on the power factor of the generator, typically ranging from 0.8 to 1.0 for most applications. Therefore, a 40 kVA generator can provide between 32 kW to 40 kW of real power, depending on the load and its power factor.


Which is to consider in sizing generator kva or kw ratins?

the unit of generators power is KVA becoze the kva is the power that contain the active power (KW) and the reactive power mean that the name plate of any generator must contain the rated kva of it (like the transformer P (KW) = P (kva) * cos fi P (KW) = V I cos fi for single phase P (KVA) = V I when cos fi closed to 1 this will increase the useful power that exit from the generator or transformer with my pleasure


What size of generator do you need to power 30 kW Air compressor?

To power a 30 kW air compressor, you would typically need a generator with a capacity of at least 37.5 kW to account for starting surges and ensure reliable operation. It's advisable to choose a generator with a higher output, such as 40-50 kW, to provide a safety margin and handle any additional loads. Make sure the generator is compatible with the air compressor's voltage requirements as well.


How many hp can we run with 3 phase by62.5kva genset?

To convert kVA to horsepower (hp), you can use the formula: 1 kVA = 0.746 kW, and then 1 kW = approximately 1.341 hp. A 62.5 kVA generator can produce about 50 kW (62.5 kVA × 0.8 power factor). Therefore, the generator can provide roughly 67 hp (50 kW × 1.341 hp/kW).

How much power does a 5.5 kw generator produce?

A 5.5 kW generator produces 5,500 watts of power. This is the maximum power output that the generator is capable of producing under optimal conditions.

What size generator do you need to move a 30 hp electric motor?

A 5 kW generator would turn it over but if the full 30 hp of mechanical power is needed, that would require about 30 kW of electric power from the generator.

Why generating station capacity mentioned in KW even though alternator rating is in KVA?

In generator station the power which produced is real power the real power to me mentioned in its's factor so it is mentioned as KW or MW. In transformer there is no effect of change the power factor (ie:cos,phi) and the power which transfer do not changes its frequency. so, in Transformer and generator it is mentioned as KVA.


When using an external resistive load bank to test an engine driven generator do you load it to kVA or KW?

It does not matter, when testing a generator with a resistive load bank, if you load it to kVA or KW. For a resitive load, i.e. non-reactive load, the power factor is one, so kVA and kW are the same.

Can I use a gas generator in my home, if so what size should I buy?

Anyone can use a gas power generator at home. However, you must figure out what your needs are for a generator. Different ranges of power usage will require different kinds of power outputs. If you aim at using a power generator for a few things, you might be interested in a small power generator. If you aim at powering an entire home, you'd want a power generator of at least 30 kW.
