Reactive Power definition

Reactive Power means the wattless component of the product of voltage and current, which the Facility shall provide to or absorb from the Grid System within the Technical Limits and which is measured in MVAR;

Reactive Power means the power component which does not produce work but is necessary to allow some equipment to operate, and is measured in kiloVolt Amperes Reactive (kVAR);

Reactive Power means the portion of electricity that establishes and sustains the electric and magnetic fields of alternating-current equipment. Reactive Power must be supplied to most types of magnetic equipment, such as motors and transformers. It also must supply the reactive losses on transmission facilities. Reactive Power is provided by generators, synchronous condensers, or electrostatic equipment such as capacitors and directly influences electric system voltage. It is usually expressed in kilovars (kvar) or megavars (Mvar).**

Examples of Reactive Power in a sentence

• UKPN will, acting reasonably, determine whether the change would lead to a material change in the capability of the DER Unit to provide Active Power Response or Reactive Power Response, and shall notify the Provider if it reasonably requires the DER Unit to complete a retest in accordance with the DER Commissioning Test Procedure.

• The delivery of Active Power Response and Reactive Power Response from the DER Unit shall at all times during the Trial Period be metered and monitored by UKPN in accordance with the DER Technical Requirements document.

• The Provider is the operator of the DER Unit and agrees to make Available the DER Unit for the provision of Reactive Power Response, and to deliver Reactive Power Response and (only if desired by the Provider) Active Power Response, for the purposes of the Trial in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

• For the purpose of determining Reactive Power Availability in Wave 1 Optional Technical Trials, a Provider is expected to offer its full range of Reactive Power Availability for each active power operating level, consistent with the performance test at site commissioning.
