How to calculate the diesel generator efficiency? what
details are required to identify the running diesel
generator sets with 1000 kVA & 180 kVA?

Answer Posted / rajendra marathe

Efficiency is the ratio of Outpur/Input. In terms of
Generator, it is considered the efficiency is 80%. 1000KVA
is the Vertual power of Generator. KiloWatt is the actual
power of the generator.On basis of KW the ampere rating
load capacity is calculated. For 1000 KVA , KW is 800. The
ampere rating is =1000x KW/240 for Single phase and for 3
phase =1000xkw/440. The Efficiency can be calculated on the
basis of load ampere it can withstand.
