why we measure output of transformer in kva?

Answer Posted / guest

The output of a transformer will be dependent on the power
factor of secondary,but this power factor varies depending
upon load ,hence the rating is not specified in
kilowatts,instead indicated by the product current and
voltage called VA RATING and is indicated in KVA

In Power Line Communication (PLC) the wave trap is used to block communication signals from entering neighboring lines. My question is this: Why do they allow for different filtering arrangements on these wave traps? Isn't it always going to be a low pass filter since we want the power frequency to go through, and the comm signal blocked?
