why we take transformer reading in kva..

Answer / coolclikker

because on the load end there is a real & reactive load both
are connected. Due to reactive load power factor is lagging
so due to low power factor actual capacity of the
transformer becomes less and losses increases. So that's why
capacity is always given in Apparent power(KVA). KVA is
actually the capacity that how much power a transformer can
supply to load
