1500 KVA LOAD BANK, P/N 9371L

Calculation of Inductance:

    • Input Voltage = 4160 VAC L-L
    • Power rating: 1500 KVA
    • Therefore each coil will be rated for 500 KVA
    • Continuous current = 500 KVA / 4160 VAC = 120 Amps
    • R = V / I = 4160 VAC / 120 Amps = 34.67 Ohms
    • R = 2 x π x F x L
    • L = R / (2 x π x F) = 34.67 / (2 x 3.142 x 60) = 92 mH
    • Four 23 mH, 120 Amp inductors will be connected in series to get 92 mH, 120 Amps

Notes:

A. Our proposed bus bars are 1″ x 1/4” thick
B. Our proposed enclosure is 50″H x 65″W x 36″D.
C. Our proposed load bank is 12 inductors (each inductor is 23 mH)
D. Our enclosure can be moved with a forklift
E. Three fans are provided for forced air cooling (blowing down)

The customer application is shown below. Twelve each 23 mH, 120 Amp Inductors will be connected in a Delta fashion to offer a 1500 KVAR Load Bank.
