Metric horsepower to Kilowatt
Metric horsepower (hp (PS))
Kilowatt (kW)
How it is calculated
Each unit is defined via the base unit (watt (W)). The value is first converted to the base unit, then to the selected unit.
1 hp (PS) = 735.49875 W
1 kW = 1000 W
1 hp (PS) × 735.49875 = 735.49875 W
735.49875 W ÷ 1000 = 0.73549875 kW
