Gigavolt-Ampere Reactive [GVAR] to Megavolt-Ampere Reactive [MVAR] Converter
How to Convert Gigavolt-Ampere Reactive to Megavolt-Ampere Reactive
1 GVAR = 1000 MVAR
1 MVAR = 0.001 GVAR
Example: convert 10 GVAR to MVAR:
10 GVAR = 10 x 1000 = 10000 MVAR
Gigavolt-Ampere Reactive
Definition: A gigavolt-ampere reactive (GVAR) is a unit of measurement for reactive power, equal to 1,000,000,000 VAR (Volt-Amperes Reactive).
History/origin: The gigavolt-ampere reactive (GVAR) is based on the concept of reactive power in AC systems. The 'giga-' prefix indicates a factor of 1,000,000,000, making GVAR suitable for extremely large reactive power quantities.
Current use: GVARs are used to measure and manage reactive power in very large power systems and transmission networks. It is typically used to specify the size of reactive power compensation equipment in national-level transmission systems.
Megavolt-Ampere Reactive
Definition: A megavolt-ampere reactive (MVAR) is a unit of measurement for reactive power, equal to 1,000,000 VAR (Volt-Amperes Reactive).
History/origin: The megavolt-ampere reactive (MVAR) is based on the concept of reactive power in AC systems. The 'mega-' prefix indicates a factor of 1,000,000, making MVAR suitable for very large reactive power quantities.
Current use: MVARs are used to measure and manage reactive power in large power systems and transmission networks. It is typically used to specify the size of reactive power compensation equipment used in transmission and distribution systems.
