why transformer ratings in kva?

Answer Posted / princealekota

Since transformer is a static there will not be any
rotational losses it have only iron loss depend upon
voltage and copper loss depend upon current

for AC supply systems like generator, transformer rating is
done in KVA because of inductance present in AC . we don't
know load is resitive or inductive

so we will take load KW=KVA,

power = voltage*current*cos(pi)
if load isinductive cos(pi) have some value less than 1
if load is resistive cos(pi)is 1

Is This Answer Correct ?    3 Yes 0 No
