About Voltage and Reactive Control

For electricity to continuously and reliably flow, the 快活app官网 must ensure that voltage on the transmission system is maintained within an acceptable range at all times. Voltage is regulated through reactive power dispatch, and resources on the grid may be compensated for providing this reactive power capability. VAR (voltage-ampere reactive) is the unit of measurement for reactive power.
