it is mentioned by the manufacturer
The function of AVR is to automatically regulate the voltage of Generators. As the terminal voltage of a generators drops the AVR boosts the voltage.
Rated power factor
You would connect them in series to double the output voltage.
It is the rated test voltage that will not cause insulation breakdown.
Normal shaft generators do not have droop-control for frequency and voltage. Semiconductor (drive) based variable speed shaft generators may have those today.
Generators generate and transformers step up or step down the voltage
The function of AVR is to automatically regulate the voltage of Generators. As the terminal voltage of a generators drops the AVR boosts the voltage.
The whole idea of synchronization is that you DON'T change the voltage (or frequency) from the other generators.
Generators are rated in watts because watts are the scale on which energy is measured.

Rated voltage is the voltage at primary side. Rated current can be found from the equation, Rated Current= Output KVA / Output rated voltage
Rated power factor
Two sources of voltage in a circuit are batteries and generators. Batteries store chemical energy and convert it into electrical energy, providing a constant voltage output. Generators, on the other hand, convert mechanical energy into electrical energy by electromagnetic induction, producing an alternating voltage.
You would connect them in series to double the output voltage.
Transformers are rated based on the amount of current flowing through them, irrespective of whether the current is in phase with the voltage or not, thus KVA. When it comes to generators, what the owner is interested in is how much real power the generator can deliver (watts). Most generators are rated at a specific real power and a power factor (often .95).
The speed and terminal voltage drastically reduces
