kiloampere to ampere
Please provide values below to convert kiloampere [kA] to ampere [A], or change ↔.
kiloampere [kA]
Definition: A unit of electric current equivalent to 1,000 amperes.
Historyandorigin: A metric prefix 'kilo' meaning 1,000 is added to the base unit ampere.
CurrentUse: Used for large current measurements, like in industrial or electrical power systems. Found in applications such as electric power transmission and large-scale electroplating.
funfact: Kiloadmperes are often used when working with massive electrical systems such as power substations or for high-capacity machinery!
ampere [A]
Definition: The SI base unit of electric current, representing one coulomb of charge passing through a point in one second.
Historyandorigin: Named after André-Marie Ampère, the French physicist who is considered one of the founders of electromagnetism.
CurrentUse: Widely used in all electrical and electronic applications worldwide. It's the fundamental unit for electrical engineering.
funfact: The ampere is so fundamental that it's used to define the unit of electric charge, the coulomb, and is central to the workings of circuits and power systems!

How to Convert kiloampere to ampere
1 kiloampere [kA] = 1000 ampere [A]
1 ampere [A] = 0.001 kiloampere [kA]
we use cross multiplication method
kiloampere [kA] → ampere [A]
1 → 1000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1000=1*x
by simplifying
x=1500
