hp (electric) to kilowatts Converter

Formula:

The formula to convert power from horsepower (electric) to kilowatts is:

Power_(kilowatts) = Power_{(horsepower (electric))} × 746 / 1e3

Problem at hand:

We need to convert given power of 1 horsepower (electric) to kilowatts.

Given:

The given power value is

Power_{(Horsepower (Electric))} = 1

Substitution:

Substitute Power_{(horsepower (electric))} = 1 in the conversion formula.

Power_(kilowatts) = Power_{(horsepower (electric))} × 746 / 1e3

Power_(kilowatts) = 1 × 746 / 1e3

Simplification:

Solving the right-hand side value.

Power_(Kilowatts) = 0.746

Conclusion:

Therefore, given power of 1 horsepower (electric) is equal to 0.746 kilowatts.
