Convert horsepower (electric) to nanowatt
Please provide values below to convert horsepower (electric) [hp (electric)] to nanowatt [nW], or Convert nanowatt to horsepower (electric).
1 hp (electric) = 746000000000 nW. To convert horsepower (electric) to nanowatt, multiply the value by 746000000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nW = 1.3405e-12 hp (electric)). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 hp (electric) = 746000000000 nW
- 1 nW = 1.3405e-12 hp (electric)
- 10 hp (electric) = 7.4600e+12 nW
- 100 hp (electric) = 7.4600e+13 nW
How to Convert Horsepower (Electric) to Nanowatt
1 hp (electric) = 746000000000 nW
Example: convert 15 hp (electric) to nW:
15 hp (electric) = 15 × 746000000000 nW = 11190000000000 nW

Horsepower (Electric)
Electric horsepower (hp) is a unit of power used to measure the rate at which electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy or work, equivalent to approximately 746 watts.
History/Origin
The electric horsepower was developed as an adaptation of the mechanical horsepower to quantify electrical power output, especially in electric motors and generators. It became a standard unit in electrical engineering to express the power of electric motors and appliances.
Current Use
Electric horsepower is used primarily in specifying the power of electric motors, generators, and other electrical devices, particularly in industries where electrical power measurement is essential for performance and efficiency assessments.
Nanowatt
A nanowatt (nW) is a unit of power equal to one billionth of a watt (10^-9 W).
History/Origin
The nanowatt is derived from the SI unit watt, with the prefix 'nano-' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very small power levels, especially in electronics and nanotechnology.
Current Use
Nanowatts are used in fields requiring precise measurement of tiny power quantities, such as in sensor technology, low-power electronics, and nanotechnology research.
