8 var = 0.008 kvar. To convert volt-amperes reactive to kilovolt-amperes reactive, divide by 1,000: 8 ÷ 1,000 = 0.008.
How to convert volt-amperes reactive to kilovolt-amperes reactive
kvar = var × 0.001
- 1 var = 0.001 kvar (and 1 kvar = 1,000 var).
- Multiply the amount by the factor: 8 × 0.001 = 0.008.
- Answer: 8 var = 0.008 kvar.
Shortcut: dividing by 1,000 gives the same result as multiplying by 0.001.
