Why the transformers are rated in kva?

Answer Posted / vivek

and yes , one more thing the output of a transformer has no
realtion to the power factor of the load , ie the active and
reactive loading of a transformer can be done in any range
as long as the combined active and reactive loading does not
exceed the max current limit . this will also give you the
answer to why motors are rated in KW , as the power output
of a motor is dependent on only the active power it consumes
