Why we use less dia. fuse and conductors at H.T. side, although we use higher dia. cables on L.t. side?

Answer Posted / al amaan

The size of the cable(Conductor) is choosed depends on the current value
For Example In 1000 KVA,11 KV/433 V Step down Transformer
Formula for calculate Power in KVA; P=√3*V*I
Current Formula; I=P/(V*√3)
Current in H.T side; ; I=1000/(11*√3)
I= 5.25 A
Current in L.T side; I=1000/(433*√3)
I= 133 A
From that the current in L.T side is higher than the H.T side So we use Higher dia cables in L.T side
