How much amps can a 500 kilowatt generator put out?

Answer 1

it depends on the voltage source being offered by the generator.

watts / volts = amps

If the generator is providing 120V, it is capable of pushing 125 Amps.

If the generator is providing 240V, it is capable of pushing 62.5 Amps.

Answer 2

None. A transformer does not generate electricity, it transforms it. Equations for transforming:

KVA (three phase) = 1250kVA = V(line to line) * I * sqrt(3)

KVA (single phase) = 1250kVA = V (line to neutral) * I

This will give "full load amperage". Transformers sometimes can be overloaded, but you'd need to look at the transformer spec's to know by home much and for how long.

Answer 3

A generator does not "put out" amps. Amps are the power consumption of whatever is using the electricity. A 5 kw generator can handle up to 41 amps, but not continuous. It can handle a continuous load of about 33 amps. Amps = Watts/Volts, 5000/120 = 41.66, 41.66 at 80%=33.3.

Answer 4

A 1250-kV.A transformer should be able to supply a 1250-kV.A load permanently, or a greater load for short periods of time.

And note that the symbol for kilovolt amperes is 'kV.A', not 'kva'.

Answer 5

The amperage output of a generator is determined by the voltage of the electrical system it is connected to. For example, a 500 kilowatt generator operating at 480 volts will produce approximately 1041 amps. To calculate the exact amperage output, you would need to know the specific voltage rating of the generator.

Answer 6

Watts = Amps x Volts

Amps = Watts / Volts

Amps = 12000 / 120 or 12000 / 240 depending on voltage supplied.

Answer 7

All generators/power sources, unless specified, should produce the regular 13amps.. All different gadgets use different amps though.
