how much amp MCB is required for 1/2 kva power back up?..

Answer / shantanu

Look 1KVA = 1000VA
Therefore 1/2 Kva = 500va
For a single phase current
500/230=2.174
So the MCB you can put here is a 2.5AMP as it will not be possible to get a exact 2.174amp MCB
Hope this solves your query.

Hello everyone, somebody knows what is a "surplice power" ? The hole phrase is: "This rating is appropriate for a generator set paralleled with an infinite bus e.g. a national electrical supply network or grid where the generator set is run at 100% load, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and any surplice power is exported into the grid" Thanks in advance.
