rikrobson Member Messages 3,963 Location Perth, Scotland Apr 7, 2016 #2 Strictly speaking you should be using kW
Spark plug Member Messages 4,062 Location Durham, England Apr 7, 2016 #3 PS is a metric version of the English horsepower taken from the German Pferdestärke meaning horse strength. With 1hp = 0.986ps they are near enough the same for arguments sake.

rikrobson Member Messages 3,963 Location Perth, Scotland Apr 8, 2016 #9 PS is 75 Kg over 1m in 1s to match the horsepower watt was using 550 foot pound per second. These are old imperial units which in the gloved world are obsolete and have to have the correct kW stated as they are secondary units
