Grad: Terminology
The grad is rarely used, so is not going to go into great detail in this area.

A grad is divided into $100$ minutes, and each of those minutes is divided into $100$ seconds.

However, this nomenclature clashes with the usual names for minute of arc and second of arc, and so it is strongly recommended that they are not used.

Some sources refer to the centesimal minute as the centigrade, which clashes with another common usage of the word centigrade (although it is noted that that also is obsolete).
