the unit of generators power is KVA becoze the kva is the power that contain the active power (KW) and the reactive power mean that the name plate of any generator must contain the rated kva of it (like the transformer P (KW) = P (kva) * cos fi P (KW) = V I cos fi for single phase P (KVA) = V I when cos fi closed to 1 this will increase the useful power that exit from the generator or transformer with my pleasure
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.
Yes, you can use both, but watts is more useful; it provides the total amount of power the generator can output.

The kV.A (not 'kva') rating is the total apparent power of the machine. So a 75 kV.A machine is 25 kV.A per phase.
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.

It depends totally on the voltage used.

The oil perisher for 1500 KVA generator is used for the lubrication purposes.
If you take out too much power, the generator will probably get damaged. In the best of cases, it has a built-in protection, and shuts down before it gets damaged. In any case, you should avoid taking out more power than the generator can handle; also, you should get a more powerful generator. Or reduce your use.
The 0.8 Power Factor provided by generator manufacturers is not the load power factor, but it is the nominal power factor used to calculate the kW output of an engine to supply the power for a particular alternator kVA output. Alternators are therefore designed to supply their rated kVA at 0.8 lagging power factor.
The kV.A (not 'kva') rating is the total apparent power of the machine. So a 75 kV.A machine is 25 kV.A per phase.
A 1-ton AC can melt a ton of ice in 24 hours. The power needed is theoretically 3517 Watts so allowing for power factor and efficiency you would need a 7 kVA generator.
10 HP is 7.46 kW theoretically, but allowing for an 0.7 power factor the kVA goes up to 10.5 kVA. Add 20% for sundry losses and you get 12.5 kVA
