Answer / s. chatterjee
electrical instruments or any type of instruments are rated
as per their output not input. in motor the output is
mechanical energy and it is convenient to express it in
mechanical expression for power i.e. HP.

Answer / vikas
Motor rating is in hp because
it does not take into account

kw=VIcos a for ac
and VI for dc.
