How to Convert Kilohenries to Henries
To convert kilohenries to henries, multiply the electrical inductance by the following conversion ratio: 1,000 henries/kilohenry.
Since one kilohenry is equal to 1,000 henries, you can use this simple formula to convert:
henries = kilohenries × 1,000
The electrical inductance in henries is equal to the electrical inductance in kilohenries multiplied by 1,000.
For example, here's how to convert 5 kilohenries to henries using the formula above.
henries = (5 kH × 1,000) = 5,000 H
How Many Henries Are in a Kilohenry?
There are 1,000 henries in a kilohenry, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 kH = 1,000 H
Kilohenries and henries are both units used to measure electrical inductance. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.
What Is a Kilohenry?
One kilohenry is equal to 1,000 henries, which are the inductance of a conductor with one volt of electromotive force when the current is increased by one ampere per second.
The kilohenry is a multiple of the henry, the SI derived unit for electrical inductance. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kilohenries can be abbreviated as kH; for example, 1 kilohenry can be written as 1 kH.

What Is a Henry?
One henry is equal to the inductance of a conductor in which there is one volt of electromotive force when the current through the conductor is increased by one ampere per second.[1]
The henry is the SI derived unit for electrical inductance in the metric system. Henries can be abbreviated as H; for example, 1 henry can be written as 1 H.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology recommends using "henries" as the plural form of the unit, however the usage of "henrys" is also common.[2]
