Why the generator rating in kva..

Answer / srujan

In generators and transformers the maximum possible load is
decided by temperature rise of the machine.

And all of us know the temperature rise is directly
prepotional to Current in machine and which is prepotional
to KVA.


But in the case of motor the possible maximum loading is
depends on the output torque.So its ratyeing is always in
KW.

I find that underground strip-armoiured,4core,LT PVC cables in an earthed power distribution sytem are occasionly found in charred condition-with no trace of it except ash. Is this because of no proper earth connection/continuity (giving rising to high armour resistance)in the joint enroute or because of insufficient capability (again due to high armour resistance)of cable-armour to carry fault current or due to neglected /unprotected overloading of the cable or due to high armour currents caused by power thefts where only phase(s) are unauthorisely tapped & at the point of poer consumption earth terminal is established by burring underground a not so good earthing rod (or using an underground water pipe for the purpose)
