    Transformer sizing for a motor starter

    Can anyone point me in the right direction, to correctly size a transformer for a 3 phase motor starter? I am interested in calculating the correct power rating in KVA. I am not sure if this is correct, but I am using this formula: KW = HP * 746 / 1000 KVA = KW * 1.5(Form Factor)
