VA refers to the effective load that is placed upon the Control Transformer (also known as Selection Inrush VA).
VA or KVA or MVA
Its simply multiplication of voltage applied and current.
No because the load is 638 VA which is too much for the transformer.
Current overload from whatever circuit draws current from the transformer? Proper fusing of its supply might protect a transformer from this cause. Or it could have developed a shorted turn fault because the insulation on a winding got old and perished? Or maybe the transformer got damaged if the appliance it is mounted in was dropped?
Yes that would work. It's all about the ratio. As long as the rated voltage is not exceeded, as there will be a limit to what the insulation can stand, before breaking down. Lower voltages than rated will be safe.

No, the primary winding VA does not necessarily equal the secondary winding VA when a transformer is loaded. The power output on the secondary side may differ from the power input on the primary side due to losses such as resistive and core losses in the transformer. The transformer's efficiency will determine how close the VA on the primary winding is to the VA on the secondary winding.
The efficiency of a transformer is calculated by dividing the output power by the input power, then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage. In this case, the efficiency would be: (580 VA / 600 VA) * 100 = 96.67%. This means the transformer is operating at around 96.67% efficiency.
A generic 115vac/ 40 VA 24 volt transformer will work fine. Mars or Honeywell are the most common.
VA or KVA or MVA
It's the apparent power (VA) it can deal with.
In a transformer, 40 VA refers to the apparent power rating of the transformer. VA stands for volt-ampere, which is a unit used to measure apparent power in an electrical circuit. A transformer with a rating of 40 VA can handle a maximum apparent power of 40 volt-amperes, which is the product of the voltage and current it can handle. This rating is important for determining the capacity and suitability of the transformer for specific applications.
To determine the amperage output of a transformer, you need to know the voltage it operates at. Assuming a standard voltage of 120 volts for a household transformer, you can use the formula Amperage = VA / Voltage. In this case, a 60-VA transformer operating at 120 volts would output 0.5 amperes (A) of current.
Its simply multiplication of voltage applied and current.
a kva is 1000 vaK is kilo, which means 1000 similar to how a kilometer is 1000 metersTransformers are usually rated in KVA, so a 45 KVA Transformer is a 45 000 VA Transformer
No because the load is 638 VA which is too much for the transformer.
