Let's start by getting the symbols correct. The symbol for kilowatt is 'kW', not 'kw', and the symbol of megavolt ampere is 'MVA', not 'mva' -remember, a lower-case 'm' represents 'milli', not 'mega'!

The true power output of a generator depends on the power factor of the load, so if a generator is capable of supplying a 12.5 MVA load, then it is capable of supplying 12.5 MW. On the other hand, if the power factor of the load was, say, 0.5, then the generator would only supply 6.25 MW.

How much power in a 15000 kva transformer?

The power in a 15 MVA (15000 KVA) transformer depends on the power factor. You did not specify the power factor, so I will assume a power factor of 0.92. Simply multiply MVA by PF and you get 13.8 MW.


How do you convert 240 volts to 125 kVA?

To answer this question a current value needs to be given. 125000 is the product of amps times volts. I = W/E = 521 amps. So to bring 240 volts up to 125 KVA you need the circuit load to draw 521 amps.


How do you convert volts to mva?

Do you mean 'megavolt ampere' (MV.A) or 'millivolt ampere' (mV.A)? By using the incorrect symbol ('mva'), this is not clear.To determine the apparent power, in volt amperes, you divide the true power, in watts, by the power factor of the load. One volt ampere is one-millionth of a megavolt ampere ('MV.A' -not 'mva') -assuming you don't mean 'millivolt ampere' ('mV.A')!

How transformer converts mva to kv?

Transformer does not convert MVA to KV. MVA is unit of power, where as KV is unit of Voltage. Transformer converts voltgae. Step up or Step down.

What is the capacity of power transformer for 132kva substation?

A 132 kV substation is normally called a grid substation. It would normally use two or more 132/33 kV transformers rated at 90 MVA, or two or more 132/11 kV transformers rated at 30 MVA.


How do you calculate kva to ampere?

You cannot convert them. KVA is a measure of power, while amperes are a measure of current.


How do you Convert va to kva?

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
