Why transformer is rated in kva?

Answer / himadri bag
Rated transformer output is limited by heating and losses. There are two types of losses core loss and ohomic loss. Core loss depend on voltage(V) and ohomic loss depend on current(I)
and almost unaffected by the load power factor(pf). That is why rated output expressed in VA or kVA(V*I) not in KW(V*I*pf).

Answer / himadri bag
rated output depends only current and voltage not in the power factor. so the transformer is rated in VA or kVA(V*I) not in kW(V*I*pf)

Answer / surya pratap singh
because the losses of transformer is no depend on the power
factor and its power factor is depend on self so the rating
of transformer is kva.

Answer / lokesh kumar raman
the transformer devloped two type of losses first eddy current loss it depand of current and second is hystrisis loss it depand of voltage .so we are taking rating of transformer in kva.

Why the pointer of earthing of 3 pin top is made thick and long compared to the phase and neutral pin ?
A powerplant has 8 gensets operating in grid parallel mode. In one genset sometimes there is pf variation and kvar variation. The plant operates in pf mode. When this variation is onbserved the load is stable, voltage is also stable, freq and genset speed is also stable. How will you check the functioning of pf card. What shall be the ideal output vdc of the pfc, from there it is input to AVR?
