Formulas

Core equations used by this converter.

FormulakW = Wh ÷ (h × 1000)

iDC and resistive AC use PF = 1. Single-phase: multiply by PF. Three-phase line-to-line: include √3. Prefer RMS voltage and current for AC.

How to use

Enter energy in Wh.

Enter duration in hours.

Divide by hours, then by 1000.

Example conversions

Common values with formula and result.

500 Wh over 5 hours

500 ÷ (5 × 1000) = 0.1 kW

0.1 kW

2000 Wh over 2 hours

2000 ÷ (2 × 1000) = 1 kW

1 kW

100 Wh over 1 hour

100 ÷ (1 × 1000) = 0.1 kW

0.1 kW

4800 Wh over 24 hours

4800 ÷ (24 × 1000) = 0.2 kW average

0.2 kW average
