why designer use kva rating instead of kw in transformer
rating???????????????
Answer Posted / integratorman
Transformer losses are related to the efficiency of the
transformer. The Power factor of a transformer depends on
the load attached to it. if that load is resistive, power
factor is usually considered 1, in which case KVA = kW. if
the load is inductive or capacitive, then power factor
should be taken into consideration when sizing the
transformer.
Hence the transformer is designed for voltage and current
output(VA) - how you apply the transformer determines how
many watts there is in the circuit.

I want to put this query to SENIOR & EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS. 1)I want to know about the control circuit diagrams for control panels. I found it difficult to understand. Is there ant booklet through which we can learn the circuit diagrams? 2)I want to learn about conduiting, laying cables, preparing cable schedules and various techniques which is the part of building infrastucture(construction field). I don't have any experience in this area. I have experience in control panels only. that's why i am not getting any opening in building infrastucture (construction field).Can I get the job in this field as Trainee Engineer? How to enter this field? I need job in PUNE

Please clarify, 1. Is it required to lay two runs of GI wire along with Armoured LT cable if it is laid between one big mains (63Amps TPN SDF) to small main (32A TPN SDF) with proper glanding termination? 2. If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from DB to CNC machine, is it required to run two runs of body earthing to the Machine from DB? 3.If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from Substation to Hangar, distance is approx. 100 mtrs, is it required to do earthing at shop area though the primary termination at substation is earthed through gland.
