The term 'burden' is used to describe the secondary load applied to an instrument transformer; the reason for this is so that it is not confused with the 'load' supplied by the high-voltage circuit to which the transformer's primary is connected. A burden is either a measuring instruments (ammeter,voltmeter, wattmeter, etc.) or protective relay, depending on the function of the instrument transformer. 'V.A' is the symbol for 'volt ampere', which defines the 'power' rating of the instrument transformer.
