How to Convert Kiloamperes to Biots

To convert a kiloampere measurement to a biot measurement, multiply the electric current by the conversion ratio. One kiloampere is equal to 100 biots, so use this simple formula to convert:

biots = kiloamperes × 100

The electric current in biots is equal to the kiloamperes multiplied by 100.

For example, here's how to convert 5 kiloamperes to biots using the formula above.

5 kA = (5 × 100) = 500 Bi

Kiloamperes and biots are both units used to measure electric current. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

Kiloamperes

One kiloampere is equal to 1,000 amperes, which are the electrical current equal to the flow of one coulomb per second.

The kiloampere is a multiple of the ampere, which is the SI base unit for electric current. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for 10³. A kiloampere is sometimes also referred to as a kiloamp. Kiloamperes can be abbreviated as kA, for example 1 kiloampere can be written as 1 kA.

Biots

The biot is a unit of electrical current named for Jean-Baptiste Biot. One biot is equal to one abampere.

A biot is sometimes also referred to as an abampere. Biots can be abbreviated as Bi, for example 1 biot can be written as 1 Bi.
