Answer / rabindra kumar
because motor gives mechanical power as output, where as transformer
n alternator give electrical power as output.

Answer / jagu
Transformer is independent of pf.Hence the transformer rating is always expressed in KVA.
In Motor the pf is dependent on percentage loading & hence expressed in KW.

All ac sources are rated in kva where alternator
&transformer and all ac loads are rated in kw
where motor

Why the brushes used in dc machines are made of carbon not from other metal?
What happens with squirrel induction machines if the ends of rotor conductors are kept open? Explain
For polarity test on a 11/3.3kV 2.5MVA delta-star Unit Auxiliary transformer,415V 3-phase supply was applied at the HV. Connection between Aa was made with a 2.5mm cable. As soon as power was switched on the cable caught fire and burnt. This test was then abandoned. It is noteworthy to say that a similar cable was also used in a similar transformer for the same. The cable did not burn and test was successfully completed with good result. What is wrong? Please, help me out.
