How to use this Kilowatts to Horsepower (Electric) Converter 🤔
Follow these steps to convert given power from the units of Kilowatts to the units of Horsepower (Electric).
Enter the input Kilowatts value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Kilowatts into Horsepower (Electric) in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Horsepower (Electric) label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Horsepower (Electric) value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Horsepower (Electric) value using the Copy button.
You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.
Formula
The formula to convert given power from Kilowatts to Horsepower (Electric) is:
Substitute given Power(Kilowatts) = 1 in the above formula.
Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = (1 × 1e3)/746
Power(Horsepower (Electric)) = 1.3405
Therefore, 1 kW is equal to 1.3405 hp(E).
