What Is a Kilosiemens?

A kilosiemens is a unit used to measure electrical conductance.

The kilosiemens is a multiple of the siemens, which is the SI derived unit for electrical conductance. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kilosiemens can be abbreviated as kS; for example, 1 kilosiemens can be written as 1 kS.

How Much Is a Kilosiemens?

The kilosiemens is the SI defined unit equal to the kilomho. One kilosiemens is the electrical conductance equal to 1,000 siemens, which are equal to one ampere per volt.

How to Convert Kilosiemens

To convert kilosiemens to another unit of electrical conductance, you need to multiply the value by a conversion factor. A conversion factor is a numerical value used to change the units of a measurement without changing the value.[1]

You can find the conversion factors for kilosiemens in the conversion table below.

Then, multiply the electrical conductance measurement by the conversion factor to find the equivalent value in the desired unit of measurement.

kilosiemens × conversion factor = result

You can also use a calculator, such as one of the converters below, for the conversion.
