Answer / jeeten jogi
transformer have 2 type of loses core n copper.core depend
on voltage n copper on current so thats y rating in kva.

Answer / santhosh a c
There are two types of losses in transformers . core losses
depends on voltage and copper losses depends on current and
one thing is power factor is independent thats y
transformer are rated in KVA not in KW

Answer / naveen chauhan
T/F have two types losss.
1.core loss - it depends on voltage & other is
2.copper loss - it depends on current
& P=V I COS(fiee) (mean depends on volt ampere). so
transformers ratings are in KVA.

Answer / sibghatullah
since transformer and generator are acting as source due to
which the load connected to them can be inductive (lagging pf)
or capacitive(leading pf) or resistive.WE don't know about
the load before hand. Real power (KW) changes due to pf
change in (P= S*pf) ,but the total apparent
power KVA remain constant. so transformer and generator
power changes that's they are rated in KVA but motor' pf is
specified and acting as a load ,that's why motor rating is
always specified in KW. because its KW never changes!!

Answer / chandrakar.amita
BECAUSE POWER FACTOR OF THE LOAD IS UNKNOWN.
AS WE KNOW
P=VI*PF
IS POWER FACTOR IS UNKNOWN THAN
P= V*I SO THE RATING WILL BE KVA

Short circuit voltage of a transformer mainly depend on A ohmic resistance of primary B ohmic resistance of secondary C magnitude of leakage flux D cross sectional area of core
The ratio of white balls and black balls is 1:2. If 9 gray balls is added it becomes 2:4:3. Then what is number of black balls ?
What is an iron loss or core loss pi?
why AC voltage source are generate as 50 Hz ?
Motor also having losses, we call KW rating. In transformer and generator having losses but we call KVA Rating why?
what is the difference between gas group b and gas group c electrical equipment construction wise?
In an electrical power supply,why if neutral phase of a 3phase supply fail over current occur but if it's single phase supply neutral phase fail low current occur?
If the rotor pf of a 3 phase induction motor is .866, then what is the phase displacement between stator and rotor magnetic field 1)30,2)120,3)150,4)90 please justify....
in single phase circuit if i connect a heater between phase and neutral, then what will be the current path? phase to neutral or neutral to phase.
why PT Primary are the grounded?
why dc power can not be used in transformer?
