Why the generator rating in kva

Answer Posted / p tiwari

Generator is a source of power. It includes active as well
as reactive power. It deliver only active power while
working on unity power factor. It deliver reactive power
only while connected to a purely reactive load. It can
deliver both of these powers while connected to a composite
load. This signifies that the current limit is the main
factor here. You can draw a purely rective current of rated
value or purly active current of rate value. combination of
output depends upon the load but the maximum limit is
prescibed.
When you are drawing both of the currencts active and
reactive, in such condition how much the alternator can
deliver? it can be descibed by KVA only not by KW. That is
why alternators are rated in KVA.
Motors are rated in KW only because for motors the load is
mechanical and thus only active power which is converted to
mech. is significant.The power factor of the motor is
independent of the load and at whatever powerfactor it
works it is due to its desing.
