  • 回复至: how to find power rating of transformer? #332173
    Kevin White
    会员

    To find a transformer’s power rating, you normally read its nameplate, which lists rated primary and secondary voltages, currents and kVA or MVA. If kVA is not given, you can calculate apparent power as S = V × I for single phase or S = ?3 × V × I for three phase, using rated line voltage and current. Always use RMS values. The rating also depends on cooling class and ambient temperature. Some transformers have multiple ratings associated with different cooling modes like ONAN and ONAF.

    IEC and IEEE standards define common technical, safety and testing requirements for power transformers. When a manufacturer complies, utilities know that insulation levels, temperature limits, dielectric strength, short circuit withstand and efficiency meet internationally accepted criteria. This reduces the risk of failures, ensures interoperability with other grid equipment and simplifies specification and procurement. Compliance also supports consistent testing procedures, documentation and naming conventions, which helps engineers design protection schemes and maintenance plans. For large high voltage units, standards compliance is often a strict legal or contractual requirement in tenders.

    Voltage transformers (VTs or potential transformers) provide scaled-down, accurate representations of system voltages for metering, protection, and control. They isolate secondary circuits from high voltage while maintaining a precise ratio and phase relationship. This allows protective relays, meters, and automation systems to safely monitor and react to system conditions. In some contexts “power voltage transformers” can also refer to larger step-down units feeding auxiliaries, but usually it denotes instrument transformers dedicated to measurement and protection.

    Voltage ratings are determined by insulation design, creepage and clearance distances, bushing ratings, and core/winding configuration. The transformer must withstand continuous operating voltage plus overvoltages from switching and lightning, so basic insulation level (BIL) is carefully selected. System voltage class and grid standards dictate nominal ratings. Internally, turn insulation, barriers, and oil or solid dielectrics are designed to coordinate with external bushings and clearances, ensuring safe performance at the specified voltage levels.

    Transformer power factor reflects the phase angle between voltage and current drawn by the load. Low PF increases current and copper losses, reducing efficiency and capacity. Utilities account for PF when sizing transformers and setting tariffs.

    A power transformer transfers electrical energy between voltage levels using electromagnetic induction. It consists of a magnetic core and windings. The primary winding creates a magnetic flux that induces voltage in the secondary. It provides galvanic isolation, enables efficient transmission and distribution, and manages voltage adaptation between generation, grid and loads.
