How to Convert Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour to Kilovolt-Ampere Reactive HourKilovolt-Ampere Reactive Hour

1 MVARh = 1000 kVARh
1 kVARh = 0.001 MVARh

Example: convert 24 MVARh to kVARh:
24 MVARh = 24 x 1000 = 24000 kVARh

Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour

Definition: The megavolt-ampere reactive hour (MVARh) is a unit of measurement for reactive energy in electrical systems. It represents the amount of reactive power (in megavolt-amperes reactive, MVAR) consumed or supplied over a period of one hour.

History/origin: The concept of VARh (volt-ampere reactive hour) arose from the need to quantify reactive power, which is an important component of AC electrical systems. MVARh is simply a scaled-up version of VARh, using the 'mega' prefix to represent a million VARh. It's part of the larger framework of electrical power measurements developed alongside AC power systems.

Current use: MVARh is used by utility companies and large industrial consumers to measure and bill for reactive power consumption. Maintaining an appropriate reactive power balance is crucial for efficient grid operation, and MVARh meters help track and manage this.

Kilovolt-Ampere Reactive Hour

Definition: A kilovolt-ampere reactive hour (kVARh) is a unit of reactive energy equal to one thousand VARh. It represents a larger amount of reactive energy.

History/origin: Uses the SI prefix 'kilo-' to denote a factor of one thousand.

Current use: Used to measure and bill large industrial customers for reactive power consumption. Also used in power system studies and planning.
