Kiloohm (kΩ) to Megaohm (MΩ) Converter
1000 kΩ = 1 MΩ
Understanding Kiloohms and Megaohms
What is a Kiloohm (kΩ)?
A kiloohm is a unit of electrical resistance equal to 1,000 ohms. The prefix 'kilo' represents 1,000 in the metric system. Kiloohms are commonly used in electronics for measuring medium-range resistances.
What is a Megaohm (MΩ)?
A megaohm equals 1,000,000 ohms or 1,000 kiloohms. The prefix 'mega' represents 1 million. Megaohms are typically used for measuring high-resistance components and insulation testing.
Conversion Formula
To convert kiloohms to megaohms, divide the number of kiloohms by 1,000:
Megaohms = Kiloohms ÷ 1,000
