We supply liquid filled pad mounted distribution transformers. 75 kVA three phase pad mounted is the standard rating above this. See three phase ratings and single phase ratings.
Full load current
| Configuration | Full load current |
|---|---|
| 480 V three phase | 72 A |
| 208 V three phase | 167 A |
| 240 V single phase | 250 A |
Nameplate full load current, computed from the standard formula. Free to cite with a link to this page. Any other rating, use the kVA to amps calculator.
What this rating is
60 kVA is a dry type rating that sits between the standard 45 and 75 kVA pad mounted sizes. It is not a standard liquid filled pad mount rating in the US.
About 72 amps at 480 volts three phase. If the job is outdoors, 75 kVA is the standard size above it and will be quicker and cheaper to get.
Common questions
How many amps is a 60 kVA transformer
About 72 amps at 480 V three phase. About 167 amps at 208 V three phase. About 250 amps at 240 V single phase. Three phase current is kVA times 1000 divided by the voltage times the square root of three. Single phase leaves out the square root of three, which is why the single phase figures are much higher.
What is a 60 kVA transformer used for
60 kVA is a dry type rating that sits between the standard 45 and 75 kVA pad mounted sizes. It is not a standard liquid filled pad mount rating in the US.
Is a 60 kVA transformer pad mounted
No, it is a dry type unit rather than a liquid filled pad mounted transformer. 75 kVA three phase pad mounted is the standard rating above this.
