What Is This Tool?

This tool converts power values from kilowatt (kW), an SI derived unit, to electric horsepower, used primarily for rating electric motors and drives. It enables efficient comparison between metric and customary power units common in various industries.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the power value in kilowatt (kW).
  • Select kilowatt as the source unit and electric horsepower as the target unit.
  • Click the convert button to view the equivalent power in electric horsepower.

Key Features

  • Convert power from kilowatt (kW) to electric horsepower instantly.
  • Utilizes a fixed conversion rate based on standard electrical horsepower defined as 746 watts.
  • Supports practical applications including motor sizing and equipment power rating comparisons.

Examples

  • 2 kilowatts equal approximately 2.68 electric horsepower.
  • 5 kilowatts convert to about 6.70 electric horsepower.

Common Use Cases

  • Comparing power ratings of electrical appliances and motors.
  • Sizing motor controllers and electrical supply for industrial equipment.
  • Converting equipment performance ratings between metric and imperial systems.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Confirm the power unit definitions based on regional standards before conversion.
  • Use the conversion for electric horsepower specifically as it differs from mechanical horsepower.
  • Double-check calculations when preparing technical specifications or invoices.

Limitations

  • Assumes electric horsepower equals exactly 746 watts as per U.S. engineering practice.
  • May not reflect variations in mechanical horsepower or other regional unit definitions.
  • Precision can vary due to rounding and measurement instrument tolerances.

Frequently Asked Questions
