WHAT ARE THE FACTORS REQUIRED FOR SELECTION OF TRANSFORMER
RATING?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / kannan.sj
first u should know
1,The connected load of transformer or load factor
2,Highest connected load / motor in the transformer and its
starting type
3, diversity factor
because
KVA demand at 0.8 p.f =connected load x LF x DF
-------------
efficiency X p.f
starting current of highest KW load takes 6 times of full
load current. so we to check it whether the transformer has
the capability to feed the load or not during starting. its
the important thing while considering trafo selection..

Answer / ahfaz
1] we have to know the KVA load required
2] we have to know the percentage of impedance in the winding
3] Indoor or Outdoor
4] Type of cooling
5] Maximum temperature required
Thanks & regards

Answer / mohammed hussain a
Load Current,Load Voltage and Load Power factor(Secondary
Side). It may 3 Phase or 1Phase.
For 3phase Power in KVA = 1.732*V*I/0.8*1000
For 1 Phase in KVA = V*I/1000.
The rating of the transformer can be identified from the
above formula.

Answer / mgm
calculate all connected load like lighting load power load
motors ahu etc, calculate the 3 phase current and multiply
it with 1.25%
we will get the transformer size
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / manasa
First we have to know about the load consumption, then
diversity factor that is demand in KW and then in KVA

Why resistance is not measure in running conditions of motor
Corona occurs between two transmission wires when they (a) are closely-spaced (b) are widely-spaced (c) have high potential difference (d) carry d.c. power

In a poly phase circuit if clamp on meter shows same load on three phases and their sum on neutral then why we use three and a half core cable or maximum the same size of core as that of phase?
what is current
how to calculate 3 phase clearance in Tower line , 33& 11 KV Line and LT Line.
if u have single phase load (un balance) and the main power cable is 3.5core means netural is .5 of phase and can the three phase current make the return paht in .5 neutral.
I hv a question regarding power factor improvement just after transformer. I request you to reply me plzz. thank you sir. My friend has a small unit of fabrication. in his factory the main load is a welding machine, lathe machine, grinding machine. this load is not continuous type. now our electricity board has installed 16 KVA, 11000/433 V transformer for our factory. In the energy meter (trivector meter) at LV side of transformer, i hv seen power factor value of 0.15 only when only 3 KW load was flowing. Further electricity board has suggested to install 4 KVAR capacitor at LV side after energy meter. Now my question is that if we permanantly install and switch on 4 KVAR capacitor after energy meter, during some load on transformer and also without any load on transformer, wht will be the power factor shown in energy meter?i dont want to get any penalty by electricity board, so plz suggest me if i can permanantly install and switch on the 4 kvar capacitor or not at LV side of transformer just after energy meter? Thank you again and awaiting for ur positive reply soon.
what is the CT & PT. where is it uses.what is the using that plese kindly answer me...?
