There’s a difference because you’re calculating VA and then watts Then you divide the two to get the power factor so they’re not the same. VA and power in watts looks the same. One is a perfect world The other is VARs reactive actual power so you can check power factor and then calculate how many capacities or inductors to correct the power factor to whatever specs the customer wants
your calculation is wrong. If I line 1=276A, I line 2=339A and I line 3=446A what is the total KVA load on the transformer. Your formula assumes balanced load current in each winding which seldom occurs in the read world. Let me know what is the load on the transformer using your method? Thanks
Thank you, I understand now why the root 3 is used and not x3 in some calculations.
Yes, using LINE information in the calculation multiple by route 3.
Thank you
Clear concise information. of course the power factor is 1.

Great vid thanks. Now how to calc power in wye config?
thank you so much
Thank You
