Power Online Converter

A Power Converter is a tool that allows you to convert between different units of power. Power is the rate at which energy is transferred or converted. It is commonly used in a variety of applications, such as electricity generation, mechanical systems, thermodynamics, and more.

Common Units of Power:

  1. Watt (W): The SI unit of power. It measures the rate of energy transfer of one joule per second. 1 watt = 1 joule/second.
  2. Kilowatt (kW): A unit of power equal to 1,000 watts. It is commonly used for measuring electrical power, such as in household or industrial appliances.
  3. Megawatt (MW): A unit of power equal to 1,000,000 watts or 1,000 kilowatts. It is typically used to measure the output of power plants.
  4. Gigawatt (GW): A unit of power equal to 1 billion watts or 1,000 megawatts. It is often used for large-scale power generation, such as from nuclear or hydroelectric plants.
  5. Horsepower (hp): A unit of power used primarily in the United States and the UK, especially for engines and mechanical power. 1 horsepower = 745.7 watts.
  6. British Thermal Unit per hour (BTU/h): A unit of power used to measure the rate of heat energy transfer, often used in heating and cooling systems. 1 BTU/h = 0.293071 watts.
  7. Calorie per second (cal/s): A unit of power used to measure heat energy, commonly in thermodynamics. 1 cal/s = 4.184 watts.
  8. Joule per second (J/s): Equivalent to 1 watt. The joule is the SI unit of energy, and a joule per second is a unit of power.
  9. Kilocalorie per hour (kcal/h): A unit of power used in nutrition and heating/cooling applications. 1 kcal/h = 1.162 watts.
