I am not familiar with these. Is it safe to assume it regulates voltage?
Running through the center of the three coils is a shaft, and attached to the top of the shaft are gears which drive a chain. I am not sure what it is doing.
The nameplate on the housing reads 'Input V 240 Hz 50-60 Ph3 Output V 0-280 Amps 250 KVA 121.
Now to calculate what this thing should be fed with, I usesd the formula KVAx1000/ Voltage (240) 121x1000=121000/240=504.16
They are feeding this with a Nema5 starter using 2/0 wire. If I am calculating right, shouldnt the ampacity of the wire be based on 504?
This variable transformer than feeds an oil filled transformer with output votages as high as 36kv.
It is in a drywalled room in an office suite. According to art 450 I beleive it needs to be in a vault.
But there are 7 exceptions. I do not know the KVA of the second tranformer.
Please help!
