1 kH = 1,000 H

How to Convert Kilohenries to Henries

To convert a measurement in kilohenries to a measurement in 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 of measure.

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, which is 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]
