The reverse KVAR relay protects a generator from a loss of excitation. When the excitation system is lost, reactive power will flow from the system back into the generator. When this happens, induced currents at twice the system frequency will flow in the rotor windings and rotor structure.
KVAR Kilovolt-Ampere Reactive KVAR Kilovolt-Ampere-Reactance {| ! Acronym ! Definition | Formular for calculation of kvar |}
kvar can be calculated as follows the a product KVA andt the sine of the angle between the KVA and KW.
{| |- | capacitance of the capacitor is mentioned in KVAR. Formula : KVAR = KW*tan@ FOR tan@, First note the power factor & KW without connecting capacitor. The noted power factor is in cos@.Convert the cos@ value in tan@. for ex. If power factor is 0.6, KW = 200 cos@ = 0.6 cos-1 (0.6) = 53.1 tan (53.1) = 1.333 200*1.333 = 266.6 KVAR if you use 266 KVAR capacitor, Then the power factor improves to unity (1.000). |}
It depends upon at how much voltage level 400 kvar capacitor bank is used.
The synchronous generator when act as a motor that relay is operated. or reverse power relay is acted. mainly it sence thet direction of power flow direction
A reverse power relay is a directional overcurrent relay. Directional relays are relays that sense power flow in one direction, and include (directional) overcurrent relays, reverse power, and impedance based relays. So a reverse power relay is a directional relay, but a directional relay is not necessarily a reverse power relay.

kvar
Kvar = Kilo Volt Amp Reactance.
kvar = kva*sin@
kvar = kva*sin@
KVAR - FM - was created in 2008.
Kvar stands for killo volt amp reactance.
The KVAR will be 1249.75, the power factor is .7. KVAR = sqrt [ KVA^2 - kW^2 ]
420 micro farad=1 kvar
A negative KVAR reading can be eliminated by adding an inductor to the circuit.
A reverse current relay prevents a generator from discharging the battery when generator output is less than battery voltage. When generator output is greater than battery voltage, the reverse current relay closes and connects generator to electrical bus.
