Kiloohm to Milliohm (kΩ to mΩ)
Convert kΩ to mΩ — Electric Resistance converter
Also written as kohm to mohm.
One kiloohm equals 1000000 mΩ, so to convert kiloohms to milliohms you multiply the value by 1000000. A kiloohm is larger than a milliohm — going the other way, 1 mΩ = 0.000001 kΩ. For example, 10 kΩ = 10000000 mΩ and 50 kΩ = 50000000 mΩ.
1 kΩ = 1000000 mΩ
Kiloohm to Milliohm formula
1 Kiloohm = 1000000 mΩ
Worked examples
- 25 kΩ = 25000000 mΩ
- 100 kΩ = 100000000 mΩ

Resistor notation and where each scale is used
Resistor values are usually written without a decimal point, because decimal points disappear on smudged schematics and photocopies. BS 1852 notation puts the multiplier where the point would go: 4R7 is 4.7 Ω, 4K7 is 4.7 kΩ, and 4M7 is 4.7 MΩ. A value written plainly as "4.7" with no unit is ambiguous and worth checking.
The scale is decimal throughout: 1 MΩ = 1,000 kΩ = 1,000,000 Ω, and 1 Ω = 1,000 mΩ = 1,000,000 µΩ. On this page, 1 kΩ = 1000000 mΩ.
Milliohms and microohms are the domain of shunts, contact resistance, busbars and battery internal resistance. At these values the resistance of your test leads is no longer negligible, which is why they are measured with a four-wire (Kelvin) connection rather than a standard multimeter.
