Hello everyone,
I have noticed that some inverters specify the same rating for VA and W, is that a marketing thing, or could they actually be the same? As far as I understand the inverter rating is specified in VA and the wattage rating depends on the power factor of the load, so it does not make sense to say that the inverter is 4KVA/4KW.
Please clarify or correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks in advance.
