About the units
Kiloampere per meter (kA/m)
The kiloampere per meter (kA/m) is a unit of magnetic field strength (h) in the International System of Units (SI). One kiloampere per meter equals 1,000 amperes per meter (A/m).
Oersted (Oe)
The oersted (Oe) is a unit of magnetic field strength (h) in the centimetre–gram–second (CGS) system. One oersted equals 79.57747155 amperes per meter (A/m).
Frequently asked questions
How many oersteds are in one kiloampere per meter?
There are 12.56637061 oersteds in one kiloampere per meter, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert kiloamperes per meter to oersteds?
Multiply the number of kiloamperes per meter by 12.56637061. For example, 10 kA/m × 12.56637061 = 125.6637061 Oe.
How many kiloamperes per meter are in one oersted?
One oersted equals 0.07957747155 kiloamperes per meter. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 12.56637061.
What is 10 kiloamperes per meter in oersteds?
10 kA/m = 125.6637061 Oe.
