Convert Horsepower (Electrical) to Horsepower (Imperial)

Unit definitions

Horsepower (Electrical)

The electrical horsepower is defined as exactly $746$ watts. It is used to measure the power output of electric motors and generators.

Horsepower (Imperial)

The imperial horsepower is defined as $550$ foot-pounds per second (i.e., the ability to raise $550$ pounds by a foot within a second). One imperial horsepower is approximately $745.7$ watts.

How to convert Horsepower (Electrical) to Horsepower (Imperial)

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = \text{Power}_{\text{hpE}} \cdot 1.000402478837891134149145010806871$$

Examples

Example 1

Convert $30.0\ \text{hpE}$ to $\text{hp}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 30.0 \cdot 1.000402478837891134149145010806871$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 30.012074$$

$$\therefore \ 30.0\ \text{hpE} = 30.012074 \ \text{hp}$$

Example 2

Convert $80.0\ \text{hpE}$ to $\text{hp}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 80.0 \cdot 1.000402478837891134149145010806871$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 80.032198$$

$$\therefore \ 80.0\ \text{hpE} = 80.032198 \ \text{hp}$$

Example 3

Convert $105.0\ \text{hpE}$ to $\text{hp}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 105.0 \cdot 1.000402478837891134149145010806871$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 105.04226$$

$$\therefore \ 105.0\ \text{hpE} = 105.04226 \ \text{hp}$$

Example 4

Convert $130.0\ \text{hpE}$ to $\text{hp}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 130.0 \cdot 1.000402478837891134149145010806871$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 130.052322$$

$$\therefore \ 130.0\ \text{hpE} = 130.052322 \ \text{hp}$$

Example 5

Convert $165.0\ \text{hpE}$ to $\text{hp}$.

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 165.0 \cdot 1.000402478837891134149145010806871$$

$$\text{Power}_{\text{hp}} = 165.066409$$

$$\therefore \ 165.0\ \text{hpE} = 165.066409 \ \text{hp}$$
