why transformer rated in KVA not in KW ? we know that W= v*i
Answer Posted / praveen420
rated transformer o/p is limited by heating and hence by the losses in transformer.mainly two type of losses occur in transformer iron loss and copper loss.iron loss depend on voltage and cu loss on current(amp)and these are almost unaffected by load pf so rating of transformer expp.in kva,va rather than kw.
w=v*i*cos(angle) in case of AC.
w=v*i in case of DC

We normally make oil soak pits under Transformers. Oil from soak pit goes to collection pit. We provide granules/pebbles under transformers. My question is weather granules/ pebbles to be filled in soak pit or not? if yes upto what level?
My question is whether bellow formula is correct to find bus size for 46kA for 0.5 second & what is RT in bellow formula. formula to calculate the size of busbar to withstand the thermal stresses due to currents with duration of 0.2 sec to 5 sec. Sp = RT( I x I x t) / K Where Sp – is the cross sectional area of bus bar in millimeters. I - is the value of AC fault current. t - is the operating time of disconnecting device in seconds. K – is the factor depending on the material of the conductor, insulation and initial and final temperature. Value of ‘k’ for copper is 143.
