What is centijoule per second (cJ/s)?

Centijoule per second is a power unit equal to 0.01 watt, representing very small continuous power levels often used in scientific measurements.

What does pferdestarke (ps) stand for?

Pferdestarke means 'horse strength' and is a metric horsepower unit historically used in German-speaking countries, equal to approximately 735.49875 watts.

Why convert cJ/s to pferdestarke?

Converting cJ/s to pferdestarke helps relate small scientific power data to traditional mechanical power units commonly used in automotive and historical machinery contexts.

Is pferdestarke an SI unit?

No, pferdestarke is not an SI unit and is regionally specific, primarily used in some European markets.

Are conversion values practical for typical power ratings?

Because centijoule per second values are very small, the resulting pferdestarke values are tiny fractions and may not suit typical automotive or industrial ratings.
