AC generators (properly called "alternators") must be EXACTLY synchronized when connected together (either in parallel or series) or one will act as a motor and drain power from the other instead of adding. This can also damage the equipment.

Most alternators sold to the public lack the special equipment needed to synchronize as it usually isn't needed for the "stand alone" electric sources these are commonly used for.

How can you connect a 1000kvaelectric generator to a 1000kva transformer to step up voltage 11000 volts?

To connect a 1000 kVA electric generator to a 1000 kVA transformer for stepping up to 11,000 volts, first ensure that the generator's output voltage matches the transformer's primary voltage rating. Connect the generator's output terminals to the primary side of the transformer, ensuring proper phase alignment. The secondary side of the transformer will then output the stepped-up voltage of 11,000 volts. It's crucial to follow safety protocols and check all connections for compliance with electrical standards.

Why kva written on generator?

because the generator generate apparent power in kilos and it is written as ( kilo volt ampere OR KVA) it is the combination of active and reactive powers where active will be used by the consumers and the reactive will come back to the generator.
