Is it necessary to change the electric meter if the consumption is 10 kW, and 5-17 A is indicated on it?
Hello, please tell me, I have a counter (old), 5-17 And it is written on it, what does this mean? The apartment will consume about 10 kW, that is, do you need to change the meter? If the owner does not want to change, he can burn out or what?
Loading...
Hello! 5-17 means the maximum current of the meter, in your case it is 17 amperes. Such an electric meter can withstand up to 4 kW of load. If the total load is 10 kW, it is better to choose an electric meter with a permissible load of 60 Amps. Your old appliance will not withstand 10 kW and will burn.
Thank you, but what do you think, a 63 A induction machine will protect a 60 A counter?
On the input you need to put the machine with the face value specified in the contract and power supply scheme. If the load is 63 amperes, it will not turn off, according to the heat exchanger, it will work. But again, I repeat, most often for domestic needs a 50 or 63-amp automatic machine is a lot.
Hello, please tell me, I received permits to increase electric power by 15 kW. Which single-phase meter will give me these 15 kW?
Hello! Answered in your separate questionhttps://my.electricianexp.com/en/kakoj-vybrat-odnofaznyj-elektroschetchik-na-15-kvt.html
Hello.! I'm trying to master the profession of Electrician. !!!
Help me to understand.!!!
I write exactly what I have on paper. !!!
T.U. No. 1, K / O, P = 16.6 kW, k = 1. No. 998500. CA4-I678, 380/220, 30 (75) A. class t 2.
from all I understand that the maximum power meter is 16.6 kW (75A)
but I can’t understand all the abbreviations. ((((((an example of T.U. and K / O and class 2) and I can’t understand what is k = 1
I would be very grateful. !!!!
TU - Tech Conditions, maximum power connection 16.6 kW. K = 1 - three-phase direct connection meter, accuracy class 2.
Good time of day. Tell me. I have a counter for 5-60 amperes, as I understand it, it can withstand up to 13.5 kW, I heard that you can add or replace a machine and you can increase the power is it ?! replacing the meter is not a problem, the problem is to issue it at the power supply organization, again, I did not check it myself. Or is there another solution ?! Thanks in advance.
Hello! There is only one solution - increasing the power consumption through the power supply organization.
Good day! Tell me please. The load is 80 kW. How much will a meter pull without a current transformer? Or do you need to install current transformers?
Hello! Well, depending on your counter. 80 kW in three phases is 121.5A, see the maximum current through your meter. Rather interesting, what is the problem of supplying current transformers if they are so needed? Indeed, when operating such loads (80 kW), most likely there is no economic problem buying transformers.
Non-residential premises, 3-phase network 380. Power from sales 30 kW, input automatic 63A, is it possible to install a meter with rated / max current 5/60? or still bet 5/100?
Hello. Please tell me, on the counter it is written 5-15a. I want to connect a welding semiautomatic device (inputCurrent 30-200a voltage 220v) whether it will work and whether that does not burn.
