why transformer ratings in kva?

Answer Posted / suryasish

In transformer there are two losses.Copper loss depends
upon current and core loss depends upon voltage.So the
total loss depends upon VA.It does not depend upon phase
angle between voltage and current,that means it is
independent of power factor.So the trnsformer rating are
given in KVA not KW.
