this load?

Answer / gkg
For Active load,voltage will be 48vdc or 24vdc,
so total active load=48v x 28A =1344w =1.34kw
passive load calc ok.

Generally in telecom shelter only Passive and Activie load
will be available.
Passive loads are battery bank, PIU and Power plant. and In
active loads Concern BTS and Transmission load.
Thumb rule to calculate DG rating is KW=KVA*PF(0.8) or
Efficiency
i.e KVA=KW/PF
Example to calculate the rating of DG.
If total Load is available 15Kw both active and Passive
then
we should apply above formula KW=KVA*0.8
15=KVA*0.8 KVA = 15/0.8=18.75KVA
we can consider nearest rating of DG i.e=20KVA
Active Load Calculation:
Say a shelter is having only 1nos of BTS,Each BTS will
consume 20A to 30A load current depends up on type and make
of the BTS. average if we take 25A.
Transmission load for each BTS is about 3A total
transmission load current is 3A.
Now the Total Active Load current is =25+3=28A
Total Active load is P=VI P=230*28=6.4KW
Passive Load Calculation
1) AC Unit 2tr 1No the load is =7KW
2) All Internal Lighting and other =1KW
total passive load is 8KW now the toatl active and passive
load is =6.4+7+1= 14.4 KW round off 15KW.
for 15KW load 20KVA Dg set is sufficient
NOTE: always we should consider 1.5% extra rating because
starting current will always 1.5 % higher than load current.

VXI(BTS LOAD)=W/1000=KW.....A
8% LOAD LOSSES IN KW.........B
10% B.B CHARGING LOAD (EX-600AH, 60AX54V/1000)....C
INCOMING LOAD IN KW....C
AC IN KW (EX-1TR, 1TR-1350W, 1.3KW)......D
TOTAL ADD IN KW=A+B+C+D.....CONNECTION EB IN KW
KW=KVA/P.F

If the capacitor bank is installed in switchyard say 132/22kv then on LT side say 22kv/0.433kv is it necessary to install capacitor bank for maintaining power factor. if pf is maintained on HT side then will that be maintained on LT side as well.if not then how&why??????/ please explain...........
I am designing new project sub station with 220 kV / 11 kV, 40 MVA capacity. This project have many recifier sets, which can generate 3rd harmonics. Now I have to select vector group of This transformer. To minimise 3rd harmonics, what care should I take in selection of Transformer Vecrtor group? If it is Y-Y with open Delta tertiary then what should be the rating & voltage of Tertiary Winding?
Kindly Tell me name of the book for electrical estimation and costing ,calculation or web site to download
Transmission line design. Say, I have a 1MVA generator and 2 transformers that will have the same load. What would be the proper rating of the trasformers? Is it safe to say, that I will simply divide the total rating of the generator?
Why LT cables are not sized based on short circuit capacity.
What is meant by earthhing of a magnetic flow meter and when to use empty pipe detection?
how does an open delta transformer works
what is the AC Plant and how can do the work with parts and picture tell us 150 Tr
What is load boxes ?
Can we connect two or more energy meters/Amp meters on one CT set(Three phase).
