Why dose an electric meter record KVA when there is no load
on a 500 KVA transformer

Answer Posted / chandrasen mourya

This is related to the iron losses & copper losses of the
Trafo. Iron losses are constant ie from No load to full
load. Copper losses varies depending on the load current.

in a solar power plant,we are going to step up the voltage 350V to 33kv, and to 132kv GSS. i want to ask that if it is possible that 315v/33kv is not possible because we also use 315v/11kv. or it should be 415v/33kv? is it effects generation or losses?  the second question is-generation is depends on LV winding? or LV winding design for generation voltage?
