Typical Electrical Figures
- Rated power: 1000 kVA, three-phase
- Low-voltage side, 415 V: about 1391 A per phase
- High-voltage side, 11 kV: about 52.5 A per phase
- High-voltage side, 33 kV: about 17.5 A per phase
- Typical impedance: about 5 to 6 percent
- Typical vector group for distribution use: Dyn11
Choosing Protection and Cabling
- Size the low-voltage breaker and cables for about 1391 A, with margin for future load
- Use correctly rated HV fuses or a circuit breaker for the primary side
- Earth the neutral and the tank to the site earthing system
- Have a qualified engineer sign off the protection scheme
Confirm With the Supplier
- Primary and secondary voltage, tap range and vector group
- Cooling class and oil volume for outdoor units
- Factory test report and warranty
- Delivery, offloading and installation support
Frequently Asked Questions
What size cable do I need for a 1000kVA transformer?
Plan the low-voltage cable for about 1391 A plus margin. The exact size depends on length, installation method and local standards, so have an electrical engineer confirm it.
What is the impedance of a 1000kVA transformer?
Typically about 5 to 6 percent, but confirm it on the data plate because it affects fault current and protection design.
