we all know that both the generator and motor are
electromechanical conversion devices.....then why we rate
motor in kw and generator in kva????
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / kk
the motors are rated in Kw as we know the actual current
drawn by it at rated voltage and power factor in normal but
generator has to carry the load wich is not predifined and
type of load is also notr defined so generators are rated
in Kva

Answer / raikripashankar
motor is having rated capicity in kw and pf but generater
dont have rated pf. pf may be vary depending upon load. and
for calculation of kw requires specific pf.

Answer / kolhe g j
Rotation related with active power . The motor rating
decided on shaft load which is in KW . Generator delivers
electrical power in KVA and Two WDg one for voltage control
ie Field wdg

Answer / ashok mishra
motor losses is depend on V I and power factor but the generator losses and depend upon V and I only
thats the answer
