Farad
Farad measures capacitance, equal to one coulomb per volt.
History: The farad is named after Michael Faraday and is the SI derived unit of capacitance.
Current use: Used for capacitors, electronics, power systems, filters, sensors, and energy storage.
Also written as F.
Kilofarad
One kilofarad is equal to 1000 farads.
History: Large farad values became more visible with supercapacitors and energy storage.
Current use: Used for large capacitors, supercapacitors, and energy storage references.
Also written as kF.
