How does frequency affect KVA rating of a transformer?
If a 500 kva, 400 v, 60 hz t/f is to be operated on 50 hz
frequency then how will its KVA rating change?
a-increase
b-decrease
c-remains same
Also explain why do u think like that.
Answer Posted / nikhil singh
Transformers are rated in kva and not in KW for taking into
account the core and copper losses which are dependent on
voltage and current respectively without involving power
factor.Now the copper loss is independent of frequency but
the core loss comprising of hysterisis and eddy current
loss is proportional to frequency.So as frequency decreases
core loss decreases and KVA rating decreases.

A 230V dc shunt wound motor has an armature resistance of 0,15Ω.When operating on no load at 650 rev/min the armature current is 6A . The motor takes a full load current of 85A. Calculate the full load speed if the field flux is (i) maintained constant (ii)reduced by 0,03

In our plant we have installed new MCC with ELR and CBCT which is detecting some leakage current in the system but it leading to some confusion when to check that in which feeder which is drawing current we put off the whole panel itself but still CBCT detecting some leakage current so can anybody ans me , where i am going wrong or how to detect whether its actual leakage or CBCT malfunctioning.
