How to Convert Kiloohms to Microohms
To convert a measurement in kiloohms to a measurement in microohms, multiply the electrical resistance by the following conversion ratio: 1,000,000,000 microohms/kiloohm.
Since one kiloohm is equal to 1,000,000,000 microohms, you can use this simple formula to convert:
microohms = kiloohms × 1,000,000,000
The electrical resistance in microohms is equal to the electrical resistance in kiloohms multiplied by 1,000,000,000.
For example, here's how to convert 5 kiloohms to microohms using the formula above.
microohms = (5 kΩ × 1,000,000,000) = 5,000,000,000 µΩ
How Many Microohms Are in a Kiloohm?
There are 1,000,000,000 microohms in a kiloohm, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 kΩ = 1,000,000,000 µΩ
Kiloohms and microohms are both units used to measure electrical resistance. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
What Is a Kiloohm?
One kiloohm is equal to 1,000 ohms. A kiloohm is the resistance across a conductor with an electrical potential difference of 1,000 volts with one ampere of current flowing through it.
The kiloohm is a multiple of the ohm, which is the SI derived unit for electrical resistance. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kiloohms can be abbreviated as kΩ; for example, 1 kiloohm can be written as 1 kΩ.

What Is a Microohm?
One microohm is equal to 1/1,000,000 of an ohm, which is the resistance between two points of a conductor with one ampere of current at one volt.
The microohm is a multiple of the ohm, which is the SI derived unit for electrical resistance. In the metric system, "micro" is the prefix for millionths, or 10-6. Microohms can be abbreviated as µΩ; for example, 1 microohm can be written as 1 µΩ.
