Answer / ajay kumar das
Transformers are rated in KVA . because it works in various PF.The P.F is vital for KW as power is V.I.PF.So as we dont know the load PF transformers are rated in KVA.

Answer / rrk
Copper loss & iron loss ,Cu Loss its depends upon current (A),Iron loss depends upon Voltage (V) ,Thats y trafo rating in KVA

Answer / coolclikker
because on the load end there is a real & reactive load both
are connected. Due to reactive load power factor is lagging
so due to low power factor actual capacity of the
transformer becomes less and losses increases. So that's why
capacity is always given in Apparent power(KVA). KVA is
actually the capacity that how much power a transformer can
supply to load

Answer / iffi
very simple the power factor of the load is unknown to manufacturer of the TRAFO. for which it is going to be used

Answer / karthick
The transformer will transfer both real and reactive power . That is the apparent power in KVA . That'y it is rated in KVA ,

what is meant by dielectric breakdown ? where we using HV test kit & what purpose?
WE know that for Inductor X=2pifL,In DC f=0,then X=0 so,V=IX=0;But In the DC excitation of rotor of AC generator,DC motor field coil which coils are inductor so why does not applying DC voltage short the rotor coil of AC generator and field coil of motor?If it would then DC source might be damaged but it is not happened. Why does the strand conductor of Electrical power transmission line make twist?
What is the basic difference among Circuit breaker,Contractor and Isolator? Are they different names of same device/equipment?
lamination figures
. The string effcy in AC sys is 80% Then for same power, the string effcy in dc sys is a) less than 80% b) 80% c) more than 80% d) zero
