Any transformer is rated based on their losses. The losses of the transformer i.e. the Iron loss depend on the voltage and the copper loss depends on the current. Since the loss does not depend on the power factor, a transformer is rated in terms of kVA (kilo-Volt-Ampere).
A transformer is sized based on the load connected to it. There are two types of load, viz. Continuous load and Intermittent load. As the name suggests, continuous load will always be connected with to secondary of the tran... Continue reading ...
