    Trying to get approximate numbers for core/iron/parasitic losses in large (50-500 kVA) distribution transformers that might serve one light-industrial building or complex, taking 13,800V to 480V 3-phase.The application is very low duty-cycle, so unloaded losses will dominate.

    Have spent quite a bit of time browsing the Web; most postings either talk about standards or promote advanced tech that may not be in service yet.

    Is there a general guideline our group might use?

    Thanks very much for all advice.

    Dear Mr. Mike ;

     

    As I don't use these special Voltages, I can give you an idea about that I used for some special applications where the Voltages are ” 13.2 KV  &  420 V ” and the manufacter is ” Zucchini – Italy “.

    – 100kVA : Po : 380W,     Pt(+70°C) : 1800W

    – 160kVA : Po : 480W,     Pt(+70°C) : 2550W

    – 250kVA : Po : 750W,     Pt(+70°C) : 3120W

    – 315kVA : Po : 1050W,     Pt(+70°C) : 4050W

    – 400kVA : Po : 1320W,     Pt(+70°C) : 5000W

    – 500kVA : Po : 1630W,     Pt(+70°C) : 5960W

    Where :

         – Po : the Losses without load

         – Pt(+70°C) : the losses with ful load at ” +70°C “

     

    Regards.

    Dear Mr Ghali,

    Apart fom those mentioned above,

    What about the losses of transformer with rating above 500kVA, i.e with the following ranges

    750kVA-2000kVA

     

     

     

     

    Regards.

    Dera Mr. Ally ;

     

    Please define the Working Voltages, are the same as above or different ?

     

    Regards.

     Dear Mr Ghali

     

    For the above range, take the working voltage as 11kV and 33kV(distribution levels  in my country)

    Dear Mr. Ally ;

     

    Please find below the relative information:

    For ” 11 kV ” :

    – 630kVA : Po : 1790W,     Pt(+70°C) : 6940W

    – 800kVA : Po : 2470W,     Pt(+70°C) : 8370W

    – 1000kVA : Po : 2940W,     Pt(+70°C) : 9800W

    – 1250kVA : Po : 3520W,     Pt(+70°C) : 11800W

    – 1600kVA : Po : 3890W,     Pt(+70°C) : 14400W

    – 2000kVA : Po : 4830W,     Pt(+70°C) : 17100W

    – 2500kVA : Po : 5990W,     Pt(+70°C) : 20700W

    – 3200kVA : Po : 4600W,     Pt(+70°C) : 23400W

     

    For ” 33 kV ” :

    – 630kVA   : Po : 2100W,     Pt(+70°C) : 6750W

    – 800kVA   : Po : 2580W,     Pt(+70°C) : 8370W

    – 1000kVA : Po : 2800W,     Pt(+70°C) : 9280W

    – 1250kVA : Po : 3000W,     Pt(+70°C) : 12350W

    – 1600kVA : Po : 3600W,     Pt(+70°C) : 14600W

    – 2000kVA : Po : 4600W,     Pt(+70°C) : 16200W

    – 2500kVA : Po : 5780W,     Pt(+70°C) : 19800W

    – 3200kVA : Po : 6620W,     Pt(+70°C) : 22500W

     

    Where :

         – Po : the Losses without load

         – Pt(+70°C) : the losses with ful load at ” +70°C “

     

    Noting that values are for ” Zucchini – Italy ” transformers, and there's some differences between manufactures.
