What is
Power Transformer
A power transformer is a static machine used for transforming power from one circuit to another without
changing frequency, but the voltage level can be altered that means voltage can be increased or decreased
according to the requirement.

Working Principle
It works on the principle of Faraday’s Law of
Electromagnetic Induction which states that “ the
magnitude of voltage is directly proportional to the rate
of change of flux.’’

 Necessity of a Power Transformer
Usually, electrical power is generated at 11Kv. For economical reasons AC power is transmitted at very high voltages say 220 kV or
440 kV over long distances. Therefore a step-up transformer is applied at the generating stations.

Transformer Bank
Banked transformers are normal transformers tied together through secondary mains and are supplied by
the same primary feeder.

 Capacity of
Power Transformer

Standards
Transformers are rated to carry a load, which is indicated by their
kilovolt-amperes nameplate ratings at the rated output voltage and
frequency. These are standard within the industry and include: 15, 30,
45, 75, 112.5, 150, 225, 300, 500, 750, and 1,000 kVA

Rating of a single phase transformer in kVA

kVA= (V x I) / 1000

Rating of a three phase transformer in kVA

kVA= (√3. V x I) / 1000
