Why in KVA diesel engine? Why not KW
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Sheik answer is almost correct with some remarks:
Diesel Motor rating is in Horse Power [HP] since this is a
motor. The DG-Diesel Generator -the generator rating- is in
kVA [the actual [active] power depends on p.f. [cosfi] and it
is measured in kW indeed. This power is variable depending on
required –and produced power but the maximum will be for p.f.
=1.Then the kW=kVA .The rated power is the maximum output
power which in indefinite time will not damage the generator.

Answer / raja ganesh
In transformers and generator copper loss is depends on current and core loss is depends on voltage.so it is mentioned in KVA

Answer / sheikh
KVA is called Apparent Power and KVA is called active power
and such type equipment like Generator , Transformers.UPS etc rating shown in KVA.

hi i m going to attend bhel interview on 22nd sep 2008 for ET(electrical engineering).pls guide me how to prepare for the interview.i am a fresher.
What is OLTC in transformers and what is its function?
A T-T transformer can not be parallel with transformer A V-V B star-delta C star-star D delta-delta
i have one source transformer with the capacity of 50KVA, connected with two loads 10kw and second one is 15kw.. how can i calculate first load in KVA and second one in KVA .. because Kva rating, power factor rating of of transformer is different from the load… there must be some way to calculate load KVA rating and power factor….
i have a roll dia aprox.43 inches and gear box ratio is 14.3.so my question is how was decide the kw rating of motor.
