Convert horsepower (metric) hour to watt-hour
Please provide values below to convert horsepower (metric) hour [hp*h] to watt-hour [W*h], or Convert watt-hour to horsepower (metric) hour.
1 hp*h = 735.49875 W*h. To convert horsepower (metric) hour to watt-hour, multiply the value by 735.49875; to go the other way, divide by it (1 W*h = 0.0013596216173 hp*h). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 hp*h = 735.49875 W*h
- 1 W*h = 0.0013596216173 hp*h
- 10 hp*h = 7354.9875 W*h

Horsepower (Metric) Hour
A unit of energy representing the amount of work done by one horsepower over one hour, equivalent to 745.7 joules.
History/Origin
The horsepower hour was historically used to quantify energy in mechanical and engineering contexts, especially in the era of steam and early engines, but has largely been replaced by standard energy units like joules and kilowatt-hours.
Current Use
It is rarely used in modern practice, but may still appear in legacy systems or specific industrial applications to measure energy output or consumption related to horsepower-rated equipment.
Watt-Hour
A watt-hour (W·h) is a unit of energy equal to the amount of energy transferred or used when one watt of power is sustained for one hour.
History/Origin
The watt-hour was established as a practical unit of energy measurement with the adoption of the International System of Units (SI) and has been used in electrical and energy industries to quantify energy consumption and storage since the 20th century.
Current Use
Watt-hours are commonly used to measure electrical energy consumption in household appliances, batteries, and energy storage systems, providing a convenient unit for billing, capacity ratings, and energy management.
