For single phase, KVA = (line to ground) * (phase current). A 75kVA 480 to 208Y/120 volt transformer is a fairly common transformer. I assume this is the type of transformer you are referring to. 75k / 120 = 625 Amps. As an FYI, the 208Y voltage is the line to line voltage, which is equal to (phase 1) - (phase 2), where the phases are separated by 120 degrees, thus (phase 1) * 1.732 For three phase, kVA = (line to line voltage) * (phase current) *(sqrt 3), 75k / 208 / 1.732 = 208 Amps.

Transformers can be used in either step-up mode or step down mode, they are just as efficent connected either way. Most large transformers have percentage "taps" to allow voltage corrections up or down by about 15%.
Hi - it should be OK but the transformer might overheat a little if it is used intensively, so it need to be used carefully. The reason is that the magnetic flux in the core is 15-20% greater at 50 Hz, and that increases the heat produced in the transformer. Going in reverse, a 50 Hz transformer will work fine on 60 Hz.
The power in a 15 MVA (15000 KVA) transformer depends on the power factor. You did not specify the power factor, so I will assume a power factor of 0.92. Simply multiply MVA by PF and you get 13.8 MW.
To calculate the number of lights that can be run on the transformer, use the formula: Power (kVA) = Voltage (V) x Current (A) x √2 x Number of Phases. Rearranging the formula: Number of lights = (Power (kVA) / (Voltage (V) x Current (A) x √2). Plugging in the values: 15 kVA / (240 V x 4.9 A x √2) ≈ 6 lights.
The breaker size for a 10 KVA electric heater would depend on the voltage it operates at. For example, for a 240V heater, you would need a 41.67 Amp breaker (10,000 VA / 240V = 41.67 A). It is important to consult with a licensed electrician to ensure the correct breaker size and electrical setup for your specific heater.
Each phase supplies 15 kVA. The primary has a line-to-neutral voltage of 277 v so the line current is 15,000 / 277 or 54 amps. The secondary has a line-to-neutral voltage of 120v so the current is 15,000/120 or 125 amps.

15 amps.
The minimum size home wiring is #14 AWG, the rating for that size wire is 15 amps.
The minimum size home wiring is #14 AWG, the rating for that size wire is 15 amps.
The wire size depends on how much current it will conduct.
A 14 gauge wire is typically used on a 15 amp circuit breaker. It is not recommended to use a larger circuit breaker with a smaller wire size as this can create a fire hazard.
