The formula you are looking for is I = KVA x 1000/1.73 x E, I = 35 x 1000 = 35000/1.73 x 220 = 381, 35000/381 = 92 amps on the primary side.
35000/1.73 x 480 = 830, 35000/830 = 42 amps on the secondary.
Transformer conductors need to be rated at 125% so the primary will need an ampacity of 92 x 125% = 115.
A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 115 amps.
The secondary conductors will need an ampacity of 42 x 125% = 53 amps
A #8 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 55 amps.

What size of 12v transformer will run 600watts?
Amps * Volts = Watts Amps * 12 = 600 600/12 = Amps = 50 amps You would need a reserve capacity, so I'd go somewhere between 60 or 100 Amp rated transformer. Transformers are rated in volt-amps which is usually calculated the same as watts. But the term "watts" technically does not apply to transformers. So you need a 600 volt-amp transformer or, as Redbeard has suggested, you need an 800 or 1000 volt-amp transformer. That's a lot of amps for a 12 volt system so I recommend you double check your requirements. You will need a #2 gauge wire if your requirements are correct.
How many amps does a 0.05 transformer provide?
You have not provide enough information. You don't explain what 0.05 references. You need to know the secondary voltage and resistance to calculate current.
Do I need more then 70 kVA 3 phase power supply for a 4 sunbeds in a tanning salon?
You don't need three-phase power; tanning beds run on single-phase. You've got enough amps.
How do you draw phase diagram for transformer operating at load with lagging PF and leading PF?
In order to draw the phase diagram for transformer operating at load with lagging PF and leading PF, you will need to know the equation for the transformer being load free. This constant will help you with the load bearing equation of Np/Ns=Vp/Vs=Is/Ip.
What is the advantage of an open delta transformer?
An open-delta connection is a method of providing a three-phase supply, using two single-phase transformers. It is particularly useful if , say, one single-phase transformer, part of a three single-phase transformers forming a three-phase transformer bank, becomes damaged -allowing the two remaining transformers to provide a temporary three-phase supply to the load. The drawback with this connection is that the capacity of the transformer bank is reduced, and it can only provide a lower load current.
How many amps do you need to supply a 150kva transformer to get 118amps 480 volts?
Rephrase your question, as it doesn't make any sense. If the primary side of the transformer is 480 volts 3 phase, this transformer can be supplied from a breaker as big as 180 amps. If 480 volts 3 phase is your secondary then you can supply up to 180 amps to your loads.
What is the fuse rating in HT side of 11.4kv500kva transformer?
You need to specify the phase. I assume it is 3 phase system. Then the HT current is 30.3 amps
How many amps can 30 kva transformer 575 volts to 480 volts gives?
for three phase the calculation is 30,000 = 1.73*V*I - simple as that. For single Phase the calculation is 30,000 = V*I - simple as that It is important to note the voltage in the first line is Line to Line (typically how it is specified in three phase power systems), and the second line it is Line to neutral. A 30KVA transformer is the same as 30,000VA to find out the Amps you need to divide the voltage if the transformer is single phase for example: 30,000VA / 480V = 62.5 Amps The calculation for a 3 phase transformer is the VA / voltage / 1.73 for example: 30,000VA /480V / 1.73 = 36.12 Amps
How many amps does a 18000 watt generator supply at 240 volts?
75 Amps theoretically Need to know if the generator is 3 phase or single phase.
Why the need of harmonics in single phase transformer?
Harmonics are really not needed in single phase transformers.
What transformer do you need if you have primary voltage of 600 3 phase and require 240 volt 1 phase?
A single phase 600 to 240 Volt transformer using two phases of the three phase primary.
How do you design a transformer with three phase 400v input and single phase 2000v output?
By design are you going to wind the transformer yourself? In your design you need a 5:1 ratio. On the output side of the transformer any two legs of a three phase transformer is considered single phase voltage. Good luck on your project.
What size of 12v transformer will run 600watts?
Amps * Volts = Watts Amps * 12 = 600 600/12 = Amps = 50 amps You would need a reserve capacity, so I'd go somewhere between 60 or 100 Amp rated transformer.

Is there a basic difference between a three phase power transformer and a three phase distribution transformer?
The basic difference is the secondary voltages. On a distribution transformer the secondary voltage is very high. This is to overcome line loss for transmission of electricity over long distances. A three phase power transformer is used at the consumers three phase services end to manipulate voltages that consumers need to operate their equipment. The transformer that feeds your house is considered to be a single phase power transformer.
How many turns does a transformer need to take 137V on the primary and produce 47V on the secondary with output current of 20A for a 5kVA stabilizer?
You will need a 3:1 ratio transformer. An output current of 20 amps and a secondary voltage of 47 volts, results in a transformer rated at 940 VA.
What is the requirement of three phase to five phase transformation?
If you want a five-phase supply you need to start with a three-phase supply and a transformer that has 15 symmetrical cores. But why would one need a five-phase supply . . three is enough.
How many amps does a 0.05 transformer provide?
You have not provide enough information. You don't explain what 0.05 references. You need to know the secondary voltage and resistance to calculate current.
