IF THE OUTPUT OF A 100KVA, 415V GENERATOR IS STEPPED UP TO
11KV WITH A 500KVA TRANSFORMER,CAN THE TRANSFORMER BE
LOADED ABOVE THE SOURCE GENERATOR RATING?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
No. Tranformer is for only stepping up the voltage, not the
power which should not be allowed to rise above the
capacity of the generator

Answer / hareesh k.s.
No.
The source generator rating is 100X1000VA/415X1.73=133A
therefore the maximum load that can bear by the source of
power supply is 133A.
but the tranformer maximum output
current=500KVA/11KVX1.73=26A.
therfore the maximum load rating that can bear by the
trasformer is 26A.
ie.500KVA,11KV transformer can loaded upto only 26A.
but the maximum source KVA is 100KVA
therefore the maximum output load rating of
tranformer=100KVA/1.173X11KV=5.25A
so the conclusion is in this case the tranformer can be
loaded upto 5.25A(11KV).

Answer / ben
firstly a 100kVA 3-phase WYE generator will only produce 100kVA of power, this will also more than likely be rated at 0.8 power factor meaning the true power you will receive will only be 80kW.
if you are using a 500kVA, 415V/11000V step-up transformer you will probably find that the 100kVA generator is not large enough to saturate the transformers magnetisation current. i would have to say you need either a larger generator or a smaller transformer to suit your site needs.
In answer to your questions: No it can not.

What, in the construction of a transformer, controls KVA? For example 600/208/120 V transformer can be 10kVA or 45kVA!!! What do we change in the construction of a Transformer in order to change the rating but not the voltage.
