How many 1k hps have you connected in a 25kva transformer?

Wrong section, however some quick math:
25kva at 120V = 208.333A ( Single Phase)
A 1k HPS at 120V = 8.3333333333A
So Transformer at 208.333A / 8.3333333333 = 24.999 Lights ( 25 Lights due to % fluctuation)
So theoretically you can fit 25 Lights on a 25kva Single Phase Transformer at maximum output.
Building a bigass grow?
A electronics and power forum would have been a better place to ask more serious electric questions .
Hope that helps.

Of course common sense says give yourself 10% factor of safety and say 23 lights on a 25k transformer. Of course the bigger question hoe will you power everything else. Separate transformer for the rest?
