Convert microjoule/second to kilovolt ampere
Please provide values below to convert microjoule/second [µJ/s] to kilovolt ampere [kV*A], or Convert kilovolt ampere to microjoule/second.
How to Convert Microjoule/second to Kilovolt Ampere
1 µJ/s = 1e-09 kV*A
Example: convert 15 µJ/s to kV*A:
15 µJ/s = 15 × 1e-09 kV*A = 1.5e-08 kV*A

Microjoule/second
The microjoule per second (µJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion, where one microjoule equals 10^-6 joules, transferred per second.
History/Origin
The microjoule per second originated from the need to measure very small power levels in scientific and engineering contexts, especially in fields like electronics and nanotechnology, as a scaled-down unit of the watt (joule per second).
Current Use
It is used in applications requiring precise measurement of low power levels, such as in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), sensor technology, and research involving minute energy transfers.
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.
