Kiloamperes to Coulombs Per Second Conversion
Enter the electric current in kiloamperes below to get the value converted to coulombs per second.
How to Convert Kiloamperes to Coulombs Per Second
To convert a kiloampere measurement to a coulomb per second measurement, multiply the electric current by the conversion ratio.
Since one kiloampere is equal to 1,000 coulombs per second, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The electric current in coulombs per second is equal to the kiloamperes multiplied by 1,000.
How Many Coulombs Per Second are in a Kiloampere?
There are 1,000 coulombs per second in a kiloampere, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 kA = 1,000 C/s
Kiloamperes and coulombs per second 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.
Coulombs Per Second
One coulomb per second is equal to one coulomb of charge over one second.
Coulombs per second can be abbreviated as C/s; for example, 1 coulomb per second can be written as 1 C/s.
In formal expressions, the slash, or solidus (/), is used to separate units used to indicate division in an expression.[1]
