why the transformers are rated in kv not kw?

Answer Posted / prashant

As the losses of Transfomefer depend on VA characteristic
(copper loss on current & iron loss on current).So the
total loss depend on VA characteristic & power factor doses
not play any role.so rating are given in KVA not in KW.
