Luckily, converting most units is very, very simple. In this case, all you need to know is that 1 gva is equal to 1000 mgva.

Once you know what 1 gva is in megavolt-amperes, you can simply multiply 1000 by the total gigavolt-amperes you want to calculate.

So for our example here we have 5 gigavolt-amperes. So all we do is multiply 5 by 1000:
