Why transformer called by KVA?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / fahad
bcoz the power factor of load is not known during the
manufacturing, this is also done during load calculation.
For reference you can see a indian book " B.L Theraja -
Electrical Technology" ....

Answer / amit
bcoz iron losses depdens on voltage and copper losses
depends on current that's why transformer rated in KVA
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 7 Yes | 3 No |
Answer / thanigai1984
Transformer is not consider the power factor so its
capacity is in KVA
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 7 Yes | 7 No |
Answer / mathivanan k
the pf will be indipendent to the trf,the pf only act at
load equipment side only
so the trf is not load
and it's losses depending copper&coreloss then only it is
mention in VA it is bulk amount so KVA

Answer / mintu kr. pandit
Mainly reason for no-load current consumption of transformer in losses hysteresis loss and eddy current loss.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / realas
Because the flowing of current in secondary winding is
without/no losses so the apparent power is zero. Hence, the
transformer may call either by KVA or KW since it is equal.

Answer / sachin verma
BECAUSE VOLATGE IS measured in volts and current in ampere.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 8 No |
Answer / ravindranath
transformer of is close to one that is why it is not expressed in kw

As a electrical engineer.. what are the basic norms should follow in transformer oil testing.. 1.What is the Electrode type? 2.How long time you will give for oil testing?
what is the difference between OD and VL
When we are working on transformer(132\11KV). we are going to isolate the transformer from both HV side and LV side. then we are applying grounding on both side. My question is that we required to isolate the VT which is still connected from secondary side.?
why the all high voltage transformers are in 11kv , 33kv , 66kv, 132kv like that
Uses of induction motor
A powerplant has 8 gensets operating in grid parallel mode. In one genset sometimes there is pf variation and kvar variation. The plant operates in pf mode. When this variation is onbserved the load is stable, voltage is also stable, freq and genset speed is also stable. How will you check the functioning of pf card. What shall be the ideal output vdc of the pfc, from there it is input to AVR?
what is the earth resistance
What is lifting power for 1 wb/m2 and 1 A magnet?
area control error
Why do we use center tap transformer that used with portable tools
will there be any problem by recovering slip from single phase induction motors?
What is the difference between magnetic loading and electric loading of a machine?
