Cómo se calculó

Base de dimensionamiento

kVA del transformador = kW de demanda ÷ factor de potencia objetivo, redondeado a la capacidad estándar; sección del cable según ampacidad y límites de caída de tensión; cortocircuito de BT según la impedancia del transformador más el sistema aguas arriba; número de varillas de puesta a tierra según la resistencia del electrodo hasta la resistencia de tierra objetivo.

Normas aplicables

El diseño sigue la norma seleccionada para ampacidad del conductor, límites de caída de tensión, elevación de temperatura del devanado, capacidades estándar en kVA, marcos de interruptores y objetivos de puesta a tierra — cada salida se anota con su referencia normativa.

Preguntas frecuentes

What is an acceptable voltage drop in a low-voltage distribution system?

IEC 60364-5-52 recommends total voltage drop from supply to load stay within 5% (4% in the distribution circuit plus 1% in the final circuit). For lighting circuits the limit is 3%. Exceeding 5% causes motors to draw more current, overheat and trip, so feeders are sized to keep steady-state drop near 2-3% with a margin for motor starting.

How do I calculate the transformer kVA for a distribution system?

Compute demand Sd = total connected kW x demand factor kd divided by target Power Factor. Typical kd is 0.6-0.8 for industrial plants and 0.4-0.6 for commercial buildings. Then select the next standard rating (e.g. 100, 160, 250, 400, 630, 800, 1000, 1250 kVA per IEC 60076) so loading sits at roughly 70-80% for efficiency and future headroom.

Copper or aluminum winding — how much does conductor material change transformer cost and losses?

Aluminum windings typically cut purchase cost 15-25% versus copper but raise load losses about 25-35% for the same rating because aluminium resistivity (2.65 uOhm-cm) is ~1.6x copper (1.68 uOhm-cm). Copper transformers are smaller and cooler; aluminium wins on first cost. The calculator prices S9/S11/S13/S20 series in both materials so you can compare TCO directly.

What short-circuit level should the switchgear be rated for?

Size the Switchgear breaking capacity against the fault level at its Busbar, computed from upstream short-circuit capacity and transformer impedance. A 10 kV/0.4 kV, 1000 kVA transformer with 6% impedance contributes roughly 24 kA at the LV bus, so select 31.5 kA or 36 kA panels rather than 16 kA. IEC 60909 gives the calculation method.

How is the FOB price in the calculator derived?

Prices come from the QDTB pricing matrix (calculator-data.json) with copper-linked factors for transformers. Transformer price follows a capacity curve a*S^b; copper windings track the daily copper price (base ~14,200 USD/t), and switchgear/compensation use range pricing. The total is a reference FOB Qingdao price including standard accessories but excluding freight, duty and installation.

What load diversity or demand factor should I use for my plant?

Demand factor kd = maximum simultaneous demand divided by total connected load. Typical values: continuous process plants 0.8-0.9, general manufacturing 0.6-0.7, commercial/office 0.4-0.6, residential 0.3-0.5. Using the right kd avoids a 30-40% oversized transformer and its extra no-load losses; the calculator applies kd before selecting standard kVA.
