UPDATED 1/15/25: Posting updated to list vendor inquiries and Government responses --
Question: Do you know the anticipated daily run time for the transformer?
Answer: The transformer will be used to provide reduced power 24 hours a day.
Question: The specifications provided appear inconsistent. We believe there may have been an error in specifying either the KVA or AMP requirement. Please clarify:
- A 25KVA transformer cannot support the listed amp draws.
- If the requirement is for 100 amps at 480 volts, this would equate to 200 amps at 208 volts, necessitating a 112KVA transformer.
- Conversely, a 25KVA transformer can only deliver 40 amps at 480 volts or 80 amps at 208 volts.
Answer: The Government is leasing the mobile kitchen and has leased it on a prior occasion with a 25KVA transformer as recommended by the Mobile Kitchen owner. The Mobile Kitchen’s electrical requirements is 208VAC at 100 amps with all equipment running. During normal operation, all equipment in the kitchen is not utilized/energized at the same time. A 25KVA transformer has been previously utilized satisfactorily and was not overloaded because all of the Kitchen’s equipment was not utilized/running at the same time.
