Hello fellow sparks,
right can anyone answer this . I have a generator which is running a bailing machine . The main isolator on this machine is rated at 680 amps quite a heavy load to operate this equipment (3phase ) what my customers want is this to be run of the mains because it costing a £1000 a week on diesel ! There is a small sub station which isn't being used about 80m away from the bailer. I've contacted western power and I've stated filling in the form and they asked me what power requirements I the customer require . Kva... Is this equation right for me to answer this
kila volts amps = amps x volts / 1000
therfore 680 x 400 (3phase) / 1000
272 kva ???????
is this correct .
Regards
