kilowatts vs kilovolt-amps 8

The difference between kilowatts (kW) and kilovolt-amps (kVA) often trips people up, but it's actually pretty simple. kW is real power—the stuff that actually does work, like spinning a motor or lighting a bulb. kVA is apparent power, which includes both real power and reactive power caused by inductive loads like transformers. The ratio between them is power factor, usually less than 1 for most equipment. So your 10 kVA generator might only deliver 8 kW if the load has a 0.8 power factor.
