The Hectowatt Converter supports 24 different power units. This makes it possible to convert freely between hectowatts [hW], metric, Anglo-American, and other power units. All power values are converted in real time and displayed with up to 20 decimal places, ensuring sufficient accuracy.
Conversion of hectowatts
In order to convert hectowatts [hW] into another unit of measurement, a conversion value is required. This value can be determined using a conversion table. However, the table is relatively large, confusing, and difficult for inexperienced users to understand. The tool below provides a solution to this problem by allowing the rounded conversion values for hectowatts [hW] to be queried directly from the conversion table.

Conversion between hectowatts and milliwatts
A quick and precise conversion between hectowatts [hW] and milliwatts [mW] is straightforward and requires only multiplication or division by 100,000. The conversion from hectowatts [hW] to milliwatts [mW] is done by multiplying the value in hectowatts [hW] by 100,000. To reverse the conversion, divide the value in milliwatts [mW] by 100,000 to obtain hectowatts [hW].
- Milliwatts [mW] = hectowatts [hW] * 100,000
- Hectowatts [hW] = milliwatts [mW] ÷ 100,000
Conversion between hectowatts and watts
Conversions between hectowatts [hW] and watts [W] are straightforward and can be performed with simple math. The required conversion factor is 100. To convert a value from hectowatts [hW] to watts [W], multiply the number of hectowatts [hW] by 100. For values in watts [W], divide by 100 to get the equivalent in hectowatts [hW].
- Watts [W] = hectowatts [hW] * 100
- Hectowatts [hW] = watts [W] ÷ 100
Conversion between hectowatts and kilowatts
The conversion between hectowatts [hW] and kilowatts [kW] is quick to perform and requires only basic mathematical operations an the conversion factor 10. Multiply the number of kilowatts [kW] by 10 to get the converted value in hectowatts [hW]. To convert a value in hectowatts [hW] back to kilowatts [kW], simply divide the amount of hectowatts [hW] by 10.
- Hectowatts [hW] = kilowatts [kW] * 10
- Kilowatts [kW] = hectowatts [hW] ÷ 10
Conversion between hectowatts and metric horsepower
You can easily convert between metric horsepower [PS] and hectowatts [hW] using the formulas provided below. For accurate results, it is important to follow the correct order of mathematical operations.
- Hectowatts [hW] = metric horsepower [PS] * 7.3549875
- Metric horsepower [PS] = hectowatts [hW] ÷ 7.3549875
Conversion between hectowatts and mechanical horsepower
The fastest and easiest way to convert between mechanical horsepower [hp(I)] and hectowatts [hW] is to use the converter above. Manual conversions are also possible and can be done using the formulas provided below.
- Hectowatts [hW] = mechanical horsepower [hp(I)] * 2.72155422 * 2.73997801
- Mechanical horsepower [hp(I)] = hectowatts [hW] ÷ 2.72155422 ÷ 2.73997801
