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.

Differcence between UPS and Inverter.
we often use the word HT (high tension) line.or we say HT switch gear, whats does HT basically mean. is it different from high voltage.
why the current is denoted by the letter 'i'
What are eddy current and define rms value?
