About Kvar Calculator (Formula)
The KVAR Calculator is a tool used to calculate the kilovolt-ampere reactive (KVAR) for an electrical system. KVAR represents the reactive power, which is the portion of power that oscillates between the source and load without performing useful work. The formula used to calculate KVAR is:
KVAR = (Reactance * Current^2) / 1000
Where Reactance is the impedance of the system in ohms and Current is the electrical current flowing through the system in amps. The KVAR Calculator helps in assessing and managing the reactive power requirements of electrical systems, aiding in the optimization of power factor and overall system efficiency.
