What is the load limit of the ADG?

• A. 15 kVA
• B. 15 kW
• C. 15 HP
• D. 15 A

Answer: (A)

Load limits for equipment like the ADG are described using apparent power, expressed in kilovolt-amperes (kVA). This matters because kVA captures the total capability to deliver power, including both real power you actually use (kW) and reactive power that supports the system's voltage and current relationships. The other units—kilowatts (real power), horsepower (mechanical power), and amperes (current)—each describe a different thing and don’t represent the device’s overall capacity to supply power under varying load conditions. Therefore, the rating shown in kVA is the appropriate way to state the load limit, making the option expressed in kVA the correct choice.
