To convert a measurement in kilosiemens to a measurement in megasiemens, divide the electrical conductance by the following conversion ratio: 1,000 kilosiemens/megasiemens.

Since one megasiemens is equal to 1,000 kilosiemens, you can use this simple formula to convert:

megasiemens = kilosiemens ÷ 1,000

The electrical conductance in megasiemens is equal to the electrical conductance in kilosiemens divided by 1,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5,000 kilosiemens to megasiemens using the formula above.
megasiemens = (5,000 kS ÷ 1,000) = 5 MS

Kilosiemens and megasiemens are both units used to measure electrical conductance. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Kilosiemens?

The kilosiemens is the SI defined unit equal to the kilomho. One kilosiemens is the electrical conductance equal to 1,000 siemens, which are equal to one ampere per volt.

The kilosiemens is a multiple of the siemens, which is the SI derived unit for electrical conductance. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kilosiemens can be abbreviated as kS; for example, 1 kilosiemens can be written as 1 kS.

What Is a Megasiemens?

The kilosiemens is the SI defined unit equal to the megamho. One megasiemens is the electrical conductance equal to 1,000,000 siemens, which are equal to one ampere per volt.

The megasiemens is a multiple of the siemens, which is the SI derived unit for electrical conductance. In the metric system, "mega" is the prefix for millions, or 106. Megasiemens can be abbreviated as MS; for example, 1 megasiemens can be written as 1 MS.
