When a switchboard reads a negative kVAR (kilovolt-ampere reactive), it indicates that the system is supplying reactive power back to the grid or load rather than consuming it. This typically occurs when the system is overcompensated for reactive power, often due to the presence of capacitors that exceed the inductive load requirements. Negative kVAR readings suggest that the power factor is leading, which can have implications for efficiency and utility charges.
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 same way, as you convert Appels to Carrots ........... There is a formula: KVAr = KVA / KW or cos=KW/KVA > Yes, we are treating KW, KVA, & KVAr as the 3 sides in a 90 deg TRIANGLE ! KW= vertical katede KVAr = horizontal katede KVA = hypotenuse
A negative KVAR reading can be eliminated by adding an inductor to the circuit.

kvar
Kvar = Kilo Volt Amp Reactance.
The KVAR will be 1249.75, the power factor is .7. KVAR = sqrt [ KVA^2 - kW^2 ]
kvar = kva*sin@
KVAR - FM - was created in 2008.
kvar = kva*sin@
Kvar stands for killo volt amp reactance.
420 micro farad=1 kvar
kvar (pronounced phonetically [kah-Vahr])
kvar can be calculated as follows the a product KVA andt the sine of the angle between the KVA and KW.
