Horsepower (hp) is a unit in the English system used to express the rate at which mechanical energy is expended.

While watts is the SI unit of power equivalent to one joule per second.

Formula to convert hp to W.

To convert these two units, we need to know how they are related.

We say that 1 horsepower is equivalent to 746 watts.

Therefore, to convert hp to W, we multiply the hp value by 746.

Watts = Horsepower x 746

Convert 212 horsepower to watts.

= 212 x 746

= 158,152 Watts.
