Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour [MVARh] to Volt-Ampere Reactive Hour [VARh] Converter

Quick Reference

1 Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour (MVARh) = 1000000 Volt-Ampere Reactive Hour (VARh)

1 Volt-Ampere Reactive Hour (VARh) = 1.0000e-6 Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour (MVARh)

How to Convert Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour to Volt-Ampere Reactive Hour

1 MVARh = 1000000 VARh
1 VARh = 1.0000e-6 MVARh

To convert Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour to Volt-Ampere Reactive Hour, multiply the value by 1000000. To convert Volt-Ampere Reactive Hour back to Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour, divide by 1000000.

Example: convert 10 MVARh to VARh:
10 MVARh = 10 x 1000000 = 10000000 VARh

↔ Convert Volt-Ampere Reactive Hour to Megavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour

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.

Volt-Ampere Reactive Hour

Definition: A volt-ampere reactive hour (VARh) is a unit of reactive energy. It represents the reactive power of one volt-ampere reactive (VAR) sustained for one hour.

History/origin: The VARh unit arose from the need to quantify reactive power in AC electrical systems. Reactive power is a component of apparent power that does not perform useful work but is necessary for the operation of inductive and capacitive loads.

Current use: VARh is used by utilities to measure and bill customers for reactive power consumption. It's also used to monitor and manage the stability of electrical grids.
