Accuracy and rounding
These conversions change only the SI prefix. They do not calculate power, voltage, or electrical safety limits.
Current prefix conversions are exact powers of 1000 within SI notation.
Keep the significant digits supplied by the meter or component specification when displaying kA.

Common questions
How do I convert amps to kA?
Enter the amps value in the converter, or multiply by the factor shown in the formula. 1 A = 0.001 kA.
What should I watch out for?
Changing from amps to milliamps changes the prefix only; it does not change the physical current.
Where does this electric current conversion come from?
