how we can select a transformer based on a particular load.
suppose we have 4 motors of rating 40 h.p , 50 h.p, 80 h.p
& 100 h.p. then what rating of transformer we can select.
urgent. pls reply

Answer Posted / eng. ahmed esmail

total HP = 40 + 50+80+100=270HP
1HP=0.746KW
total Kw =201.42Kw
at 0.75 power factor
P= S *P.F
S=268.56 KVA
at 0.85 transformer loading
S=268.56/.85=315.95 KVA
so we will use 400 KVA transformer for this motor loads

if an insulated power and control cables of a running gas diesel gensets laid direct in an open trench i.e, trench bed is not rcc of a power house in which rain water, spillage water alwas exists and all power control cables remains submerged even when gas gensets of 480 kw each runningin on load. These power &control cables runs from power house to switchgear room through these trenches in which water remains most of the time. pl explain its merit & de-merit
