what is the rating of a power transformer?

Answer Posted / amarjeet kumar

KVA is the rating of power transformer, as transformer is a power source,and it has basically two types of losses one is copper and another is core loss, copper loss depends upon current and core loss depend on voltage so its rating is multiple of current and voltage i.e KVA.It is independent of load so it is independent of power factor too, hence its unit is not in KW .

HELLO EVERYONE, I RECENTLY HAVE FOUND ONE PROBLEM, I WAS TAKING NO LOAD TRIAL OF AN HT MOTOR 920 MOTOR , 1440 RPM , 6.6 KV, WITH AUTO TRANSFORMER. AT 450 V, LOAD WAS 40 AMP AND SPEED WAS 250 RPM. BUT AS WE INCREASE VOLTAGE FROM 450 TO 480V, LOAD BECOME 41 AND SPEED REDUCED TO SOME RPM . SO WHICH PHENOMENON ACTED HERE FOR REDUCING SPEED.?? AND IS IT HAPPENING ALWAYS OR IT IS RARE? I ALSO HAVE FACED SUCH PROBLEM WITH FEW LT MOTOR ALSO.
