Yes..you can use it if there is no load connected more than 63A. Otherwise you have to keep on changing the burned Panel...

Not with any "normal" voltages, but maybe with medium voltage.

Do make sure it complies with the wiring codes applicable in your country, Effendi.

Re: Rating of Generator Panel

So you have a generator that is producing 220kV (220,000 Volts) and it is rated 220kVA (220,000 Volt-Amperes) and you want to know if you can use a 63A rated panel on it?

Assuming single phase AC service, 220kVA / 220kV = 1A. So technically yes, you can install a 220kV 63A "panel" on it, but you cannot expect to use more than 1A load on that panel. The cost of a 220kV rated "panel" (more like a sub-station) will be such that I think it would behoove you to investigate if you have your numbers correct before making that purchase however.

I'm being facitious of course, I'm pointing out that the inacuracies in the way you worded the question and the fact that you even needed to ask are prime indications that you should not be undertaking this task, this is something that should have a professional involved in who truly understands what you need and what you have. The risk of this being done incorrectly is fire and death.
