Kilovolt-Ampere Reactive Hour [kVARh] to Gigavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour [GVARh] Converter
How to Convert Kilovolt-Ampere Reactive Hour to Gigavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour
1 kVARh = 0.000001 GVARh
1 GVARh = 1000000 kVARh
Example: convert 10 kVARh to GVARh:
10 kVARh = 10 x 0.000001 = 0.000009999999999999999 GVARh
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.
Gigavolt-Ampere Reactive Hour
Definition: The gigavolt-ampere reactive hour (GVARh) is a unit of measurement for reactive energy in electrical systems. It represents the amount of reactive power (in gigavolt-amperes reactive, GVAR) consumed or supplied over a period of one hour. One GVARh is equal to 1000 MVARh.
History/origin: Similar to MVARh, GVARh emerged as a scaling of VARh to represent larger quantities of reactive energy. The 'giga' prefix signifies a billion VARh. It's a part of the evolution of electrical power measurement units to accommodate increasing power demands.
Current use: GVARh is typically used for very large-scale reactive power measurement and billing, often associated with major industrial facilities or transmission networks where reactive power flows are significant.
