This work continues the research presented in the article (Dolgov et al. in Universe 10(1):7, 2024), where we estimate the Gertsenshtein effect’s influence on the long-wavelength part of relic gravitational wave spectrum. Here, the differential equation system for the Gertsenshtein effect in Friedman–Lemaitre–Robertson–Walker universe, derived in Dolgov et al. (Universe 10(1):7, 2024), is simplified for gravitational waves in the sub-horizon regime during radiation dominance epoch without taking into account the interaction with primary plasma. Then, the obtained system is solved analytically. As a result of the solution analysis, a conclusion was made about a significant increase of relic GWs with the frequencies Hz for magnetic field strength
nGs in the considered approximation. In addition, at the end of the article model dependence of the result is discussed.
