No, mvar (megavolt-ampere reactive) is a unit of apparent power while MVA (megavolt-ampere) is a unit of real power. Mvar is used to measure reactive power, while MVA is used to measure total power (both real and reactive).

What does mva mean in electrical terms?

MVA is the apparent power. MVA=( MW+ MVAr)1/2


A transmission line has 30 megawatts and 40 megavars what is the megavolt amps load on the line?

By definition, MVA is equivalent to the vector sum of MW and MVAR: MVA^2 = MW^2 + MVAR^2 = 2500 MVA = 50


A transmission line has 30 mw and 40 mvar flowing what is the mva flow on the circuit?

MVA= square root of (MW2 + MVAR2 )


How do you calculate MVAR with mw and mva?

mw/mva=power factor reactive power(Q)=I2XL or E2/XL where XL= REACTANCE apparent power = square root of (MW2 + MVAR2 )


What does mva stand for in the turbo generator field?

There are two concerns here regarding loading on transformers of this size. First is the difference between MVA and MW. MW is just real power -- watts. MVA is total power which includes real power (MW) and reactive power (MVAR).--- http://en.allexperts.com/q/Electric-Power-Utilities-2405/operation-limit-oof-power.htm


How you convert Amps into MVA?

1mva = 1000kva so you simply divide by 1000. 10000KVA = 10MVA K = kilo = 1000 M = mega = 1000000


What is MVA at Plaza?

MVA we are so tight MVA not supposed to fight MVA we are so cool MVA we act like fools. MVA stands for Martina Victoria and Anaya. Bianca not included


How do you convert MVA into MW?

You would have to know the Power Factor, normally designated PF. MVA x PF = MW. If the PF is unity then MVA = MW. A PF of UNITY suggest the load is purely resistive with neither capacitive nor inductive components in the load or source. Of course this can mean such components have been balanced artificially.


What kind of power is MVA?

MVA is the aparant power.


What is the population of MVA in Asia?
