When using a transformer sizing tool like this http://www.csgnetwork.com/xformercalc.html
when it ask if it's a single phase or 3 phase how does that apply to 480 to 120 transformers we use in control panels? Is it still single phase?
When trying to calculate amps you have to give it volts and KVA. Does it need primary or secondary voltage? which one do you to calculate?
If I do single phase and my KVA is 3 and I use primary voltage of 480 then amps is 6.25
If I do single phase and my KVA is 3 and I use Secondary voltage of 120 then amps is 25
Which one is right to calculate with primary voltage or secondary voltage?
