why ac generator ratings in kva only why not kw ?????????????
?
Answer Posted / at
Not only generator but UPS / Transformer or any other
device which is giving Electrical power as output is rated
in kVA. The reason is that it is power that will be given
by the machine apperently. however when the load is
connected say for example a motor the actual power which is
converted to work is diffenrent known as active power and
involves power factor. There fore all machines with
mechnical output are rated in kw.

need to make a report. Need to choose a 3phase induction motor. Load conditions motor will operate in : Maximum Load: 30 Kw Speed: 2950 rpm Ambient temp: 20 cent Supply voltage: 440V Frequency: 50Hz need to look for the safety factor when choosing the motor, went through catalouge found a few, but dont know how to choose the safety factor allowing an extra load something above 30 KW to avoid any harm.
