When an installation is to be supplied directly from a MV/LV transformer and the maximum apparent-power loading of the installation has been determined, a suitable rating for the transformer can be decided, taking into account the following considerations:

The possibility of improving the power factor of the installation (see chapter L)
Anticipated extensions to the installation
Installation constraints (e.g. temperature)
Standard transformer ratings
    Apparent power [kVA]In (A)
    - 237V -- 410V -

    160390225

    Figure. 1 : Standard apparent powers for MV/LV transformers and related nominal output currents

    3-phase transformer

    The nominal full-load current In on the LV side of a 3-phase transformer is given by:

    where:
    • Pa = kVA rating of the transformer
    • U = phase-to-phase voltage at no-load in volts (237 V or 410 V)
    • In is in amperes

    Single-phase transformer

    For a single-phase transformer:

    where
    • V = voltage between LV terminals at no-load (in volts)
    Simplified equation for 400 V (3-phase load)
    • In = kVA x 1.4
    The IEC standard for power transformers is IEC 60076.
