Volts and VA are not the same.

Va is a measure of amperage not voltage

VA is not a measure of amperage either, it is a measure of power without regard to power factor, so it includes both true power as well as apparent power that results from having reactive current. If you have a power factor of 1.0 then VA is the same as watts.

VA is Volt Amps

Volts times Amps

Like kwired says, with a Power Factor of 1.0 (or a DC circuit), VA=Watts.

Transformers typically specified in KVA, KilloVolt Amps.
