how to calculate the current of a generator
(OP)
Dear all
i have an electric generator of 100kva,3 phases and i need to know how much amperes i have on each phase and also how much should i use in nominal consumption

RE: how to calculate the current of a generator
Then your rated line current = (100 x 1000)/(1.732 x V)
RE: how to calculate the current of a generator
Maximum current will be given on the nameplate.
Note that if a generator rated at 208 volts is used at 240 volts, the KVA rating will increase. The maximum allowable current will be the same.
With this in mind, use edison123's formula with rated voltage.
