  4. What is the meaning of kVA for a generator? • Kilo-volt ampere (kVA) is a unit of apparent power. • This unit is relatively unknown outside the diesel generator industry. • kVA is an electrical term used to describe the amount of electrical power that a meter can feed to a building or site. • Kilowatt (kW) is the unit most commonly used and is conveys real power, while kVA conveys apparent power. • The basic difference is the power factor (usually 0.8).

  5. What is the meaning of kVA for a generator? • kVA x Power factor (typically 0.8) = kW. • A 10 kVA generator can handle a power load of 8 kW. • To be safe, you should expect the generator to handle a power load of about 4 kW of power efficiently. • You can definitely increase the load, but the generator will trip if the power exceeds 8kW. • If you are looking to buy a generator, I would recommend you consult an expert to have a clear ide.

  6. What is the meaning of kVA for a generator? • Although there are quite a few brands around, I’d suggest TMTL Engines-Eicher Engines. • They have a wide range of reliable power generator options. • They are fuel-efficient and have the longest service period and the longest overhauling period in the industry. • These features alone make TMTL diesel generatorsworth considering.
