Why DG set rating in KVA

Answer Posted / sara

KVA=VI*power factor
Efficiency of DG sets depends on the type of load used. the
manufacturer doesn't know what the type of load(inductive-
lagging-PF, capacitive-leading-PF) is to be used. so they
don't consider the power factor here, they take it as
unity.PF.
KVA=VI*(1) hence DG ratings are in KVA.
