Picocoulombs to Ampere-Hours Converter

What Is a Picocoulomb?

The picocoulomb is 1/1,000,000,000,000 of a coulomb, which is the electric charge equal to one ampere of current over one second.

The picocoulomb is a multiple of the coulomb, which is the SI derived unit for electric charge. In the metric system, "pico" is the prefix for 10^-12. Picocoulombs can be abbreviated as pC; for example, 1 picocoulomb can be written as 1 pC.

What Is an Ampere-Hour?

One ampere-hour is the electric charge equal to the charge conveyed by a current of one ampere for one hour. One ampere-hour is equal to 3,600 coulombs.

The ampere-hour is a non-SI metric unit for electric charge. An ampere-hour is sometimes also referred to as an amp-hour. Ampere-hours are usually abbreviated as Ah, although the formally adopted expression is A·h. The abbreviation A h is also sometimes used. For example, 1 ampere-hour can be written as 1 Ah, 1 A·h, or 1 A h.

In formal expressions, the centered dot (·) or space is used to separate units used to indicate multiplication in an expression and to avoid conflicting prefixes being misinterpreted as a unit symbol.^[1]
