why is the rating of transformer done in kva and not in kw.

Answer Posted / beau

because transformer capacity takes care of both real power
consumed by resistive loads and reactive power in inductive
and capacitive loads such as motors and the transformer's
windings inductive reactance(Apparent power KVA).
