Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

a) 520 kVA

Answer 2

The rating required for a DG set is 625.

Explanation:

• Total Connected Load is the mechanical and electrical load (in kW) that will be connected (or to consumed) for that particular area.

• Loading indicate amount of current flowing in it when it gets loaded.  

• Approximately kVA = kW / power factor = 500/ 0.8   = 625 kVA.
