Convert kilovolt ampere to centijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert kilovolt ampere [kV*A] to centijoule/second [cJ/s], or Convert centijoule/second to kilovolt ampere.
1 kV*A = 100000 cJ/s. To convert kilovolt ampere to centijoule/second, multiply the value by 100000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cJ/s = 1e-05 kV*A). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 kV*A = 100000 cJ/s
- 1 cJ/s = 1e-05 kV*A
- 10 kV*A = 1000000 cJ/s
- 100 kV*A = 10000000 cJ/s
How to Convert Kilovolt Ampere to Centijoule/second
1 kV*A = 100000 cJ/s
Example: convert 15 kV*A to cJ/s:
15 kV*A = 15 × 100000 cJ/s = 1500000 cJ/s

Kilovolt Ampere
A kilovolt ampere (kV·A) is a unit of apparent power in an electrical circuit, equal to 1,000 volt-amperes, representing the product of voltage in kilovolts and current in amperes.
History/Origin
The kilovolt ampere emerged as a standard unit for measuring apparent power in electrical engineering, especially with the adoption of the SI system, to quantify the capacity of electrical equipment such as transformers and generators.
Current Use
Today, the kilovolt ampere is widely used in power systems to specify the capacity of electrical devices, particularly in the context of transformers, generators, and power distribution systems, facilitating the design and analysis of electrical networks.
Centijoule/second
A centijoule per second (cJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to 0.01 joules per second.
History/Origin
The centijoule per second is derived from the SI unit joule, with the prefix centi indicating a hundredth, and is used in contexts requiring smaller power measurements. It has been in use as a supplementary unit in scientific and engineering fields where precise, small-scale power measurements are needed.
Current Use
The cJ/s is used in scientific research, engineering, and technical applications involving small power quantities, such as in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), low-power electronics, and detailed energy transfer analyses within the 'Power' converter category.
