Formulas you need for single phase calculations. KVA = I x E/1000, KW = I x E x pf (where pf = power factor). For your question multiply the KVA by the power factor to get KW and then move the decimal point three places to the right to get watts. They are virtually the same. A watt is volts times amps. KVA is thousand of volts time amps.
KVA and KW ratings are the same.
20 kva a watts
0 - 1000. KVA times a power factor gives you kilowatts, 1000 x watts. If the power factor is 0, then o watts make up your one kVA; if the power factor is 1, then 1000 watts make up your one kVA. Typical power factor is in the range of .8 to 1.
It could be as much as 63 kW (63,000 Watts) into a load with a power factor of 1.0. For other loads, multiply the kVA by the power factor.
1 KVA = 1,000 watts or in other terms, 1 Kilowatt.
Work and Time; Power = Work/Time
20 kva a watts
8,000 watts = 8 kVA / (the power factor) If the power factor is 1, then 8 kVa = 8,000 watts.
0 - 1000. KVA times a power factor gives you kilowatts, 1000 x watts. If the power factor is 0, then o watts make up your one kVA; if the power factor is 1, then 1000 watts make up your one kVA. Typical power factor is in the range of .8 to 1.

The term horsepower has several definitions, depending on usage. According to WikiPedia, the Electric Motor usage is 746 watts. One kva (kilo-volt-amp) is 1,000 watts, so you might be able to say that one kva is 746,000 watts. Unfortunately, kva depends on phase angle and, except for a power factor of one (purely resistive), kva is not the same as kw (kilo-watts). Someone else with more knowledge than I will need to enhance this answer.
If you multiply kVA by Power Factor (Ranges from zero to one) you get watts which is effective power.
1 KVA = 1,000 watts or in other terms, 1 Kilowatt.
Work and Time; Power = Work/Time
One horsepower is equal to 746 watts.
There are ~5.9 kVA with 5600 watts and a power factor of 0.95. power factor is defined as the real power (watts) divided by the complex power (volt amperes): .95 = 5600/VA VA = 5600/.95 = 5894.7VA = 5.89kVA
1 tone = 1540 Watts=1.540 KW. whereas 1 KW=1.25 KVA. I think you have got the answer.
Yes, you can use both, but watts is more useful; it provides the total amount of power the generator can output.
