Hp to kW conversion ►

Kilowatt

Kilowatts is a unit of power - the energy consumed within a certain time.

One kilowatt (kW) is equal to 1000 watts (W):

1kW = 1000W

One kilowatt is defined as energy consumption of 1000 joules for 1 second:

1kW = 1000J / 1s

One kilowatt is equal to 1000000 milliwatts:

1kW = 1000000mW

Horsepower

Kilowatts is a unit of power - the energy consumed within a certain time.

One imperial/mechanical horsepower (hp(I)) is equal to 745.7 watts (W):

1hp(I) = 745.7W

One electrical horsepower (hp(E)) is equal to 746 watts (W):

1hp(E) = 746W

One metric horsepower (hp(M)) is equal to 745.5 watts (W):

1hp(M) = 745.5W

How to convert kilowatts to horsepower

Kilowatts to imperial/mechanic horsepower

One imperial/mechanic horsepower is equal to 0.7457 kilowatts:

1 hp(I) = 745.699872 W ≈ 745.7 W = 0.7457 kW

So the power conversion of kilowatts to horsepower is given by:

P(hp) = P(kW) / 0.7457

Example

Convert 10kW to imperial/mechanic horsepower:

P(hp) = 10kW / 0.7457 = 13.41 hp

 

Kilowatts to electrical horsepower

One electrical horsepower is equal to 0.746 kilowatts:

1 hp(E) = 746 W = 0.746 kW

So the power conversion of kilowatts to horsepower is given by:

P(hp) = P(kW) / 0.746

Example

Convert 10kW to electrical horsepower:

P(hp) = 10kW / 0.746 = 13.405 hp

 

Kilowatts to metric horsepower

One metric horsepower is equal to 0.7355 kilowatts:

1 hp(M) = 735.49875 W ≈ 735.5 W = 0.7355 kW

So the power conversion of kilowatts to horsepower is given by:

P(hp) = P(kW) / 0.7355

Example

Convert 10kW to metric horsepower:

P(hp) = 10kW / 0.7355 = 13.596 hp
