Why the generator rating in kva

Answer Posted / iftikhar ahmed

Any device is rated depending on losses of the machine. In
a transformer the losses are iron losses which depend on
voltage and copper losses which depend on current so there
are no losses which depend on power factor hence
transformer is rated in KVA.the same thing applies for
generator aswell.
