what is the formula to calculate kva genset required for a
given load in kw.
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Kva Required is = KW/0.8( Power factor )
& as the DG set is prefered to run at 80% load of the total
capacity then the Rated capacity is KVA/0.8
If the load is 100 KW rhen KVa is 100/0.8 = 125 KVa & the
rated kva is 125/0.8 = 156.25 KVA say 160 kva D.G set is
required.

Answer / vaibhav kr. pathak (ongc,hazir
Normaly relation between kVA and kW can be described as:
For 1phase system->kW=kVA X power factor.
For 3phase system->kW=3^(1/2)*V*I*power factor (V&I are
line voltage and current respectively)

Thumb rule for capacitor bank calculation
Why the power factor of the alternator in power plant is kept .8 lagging. Can't we maintain it at 1.
3 measuring instrument for transformers?
I have a current transformer with 1 main reading meter with transformer outside the building and a control panel having 5 CT reading meters with black round coils inside the building. I want to know, A) when current pass through the Transformers, will the current be reduced or be the same and after that B) when current pass through the CT meters with black round coils, will the current be reduced or be the same. C) in the above process will the reading of the main meter be same or different, from the total reading of all the 5 CT meters.
