    I think you may mean 'Step Down Transformer'? Is your supply voltage too high?
    If I have got it wrong, can you please elaborate. I'm guessing English is not your first language.

    We are going to need more info....

    Ok...You must have wild voltage fluctuations in your area?

    Your Spindle is rated at 3.2kW and that would be most of the load.
    I would think that you would be ok using a 3.5 kVA AVR or if you wanted to be extra safe, maybe 4.0 kVA. depending on what sizes are available.
    The worse your Power factor is, the higher the kVA rating has to be.
    Cost will probably a consideration as well.
