It depends on the total load spread along the line and the voltage drop at full load at the end of the line. Generally up to 3 % voltage drop is considered ok. Anything beyond you need another transformer center.
It depends on the voltage on line side. KVA is simply thousand volt-amps, so you need to know voltage in order to calculate amperes.Another AnswerThe rated primary current is the rated apparent power of the transformer, divided by the rated primary current. However, the actual primary current is determined by the actualsecondary load current in proportion to the reciprocal of the turns ratio.
A lightning arrestor acts to reduce a voltage surge due to, for example, a lightning strike on a power line. This will protect the transformer from an over-voltage acting to break down its resistance. A lightning arrestor is connected between each line conductor and earth. Under normal voltage conditions, it acts as an insulator, but when a critical value of over-voltage is reached, it conducts -suppressing the voltage spike.
A transformer is used to change the voltage level of an electrical current, either stepping it up or stepping it down. This is important for transmitting electricity efficiently over long distances and for matching the voltage needed by different devices.
Its not a part of the line but a different component in the circuit called the transformer. The step down transformer is responsible for reducing the voltage that is brought to it from the company main line. It follows the law of electromagnetic induction.
Electriciy can down for a variety of reasons, a vehicle can knock over a power pole, a storm can drop a tree branch on a power line, a transformer can blow if old, or even excessive power usage in a neighbourhood can blow the local tranformer out.
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.
The result is that the transformer runs cool and contented. The '250 KVA' rating on the transformer is its maximum ability to transfer power from its input to its output without overheating, NOT an amount of power always running through it. If the 3 KVA load happens to be the only thing connected to the transformer at the time, then only 3 KVA flows into the transformer from the primary line, and only 3 KVA leaves the transformer secondary.
Probably the only way is to eliminate the overhead powerline and bury the cable from transformer to the house. The wires will always telegraph sounds from the powerline and/or power poles.
A transformer can perform this function.
UniT transformer are step up transformer which is connected to generating house & step up voltage from 11/15kV votlage to 220/400kV voltage level as requirement or line design parameter. It is just like transformer but connected to unit of the generating house that's why we called it unit transformers.
A1: Usually this is in reference to a transformer that either steps up or steps down the Line Voltage. For example if your house line voltage was 120 VAC and this voltage was attached to the input (Primary) or a transformer, the output side of the transformer might step up the voltage to 240 VAC. This would be called line out voltage on the secondary of the transformer. A2: In case the question was related to audio signalling and amplification, Line In and Line Out are low level inputs and outputs of audio signals, often using RCA phono jacks, such as what is connected between a tape deck or CD player and your mixer or amplifier with coaxial cables.
Not without your permission.
Step down transformer reduces high voltage of main power line and distribute it to desired level of voltage usable by residence or devices.
I would caution you that it might be dangerous to do that. The voltages of the electricity supplied to houses in some European countries differ from the one on this continent. For anything short-term, they sell converters that can protect your equipment when plugging into a non-standard outlet, which would be much safer. However, to answer your question, in a European house you would need the final line transformer providing 230V from the power company to have a center tapped neutral, which they do not currently have, and so you would have to have a custom transformer... who knows what that would take in terms of safety regulations or permits. (In the US 240V is the main voltage coming into the house, and they use a center tapped transformer secondary tied to house neutral on the house side. The voltages available inside the US house are 120V from each line to neutral and 240V from line to line.)
The maximum power output of the transformer is measured in VA or KVA, (volt-amps) or thousand (volt-amps). That will will marked or stamped on the transformer. If you want to measure the amount of power being used by the Xformer, measure the Line side current in amps with an amprobe and multiply by the line voltage to it. The result in watts is the power consumption.
It is the same as phase to neutral. As the neutral is earthed at the electricity suppliers transformer.
