Millivolt [mV] to Kilovolt [kV] Converter

Quick Reference

1 Millivolt (mV) = 1.0000e-6 Kilovolt (kV)

1 Kilovolt (kV) = 1000000 Millivolt (mV)

How to Convert Millivolt to Kilovolt

1 mV = 1.0000e-6 kV
1 kV = 1000000 mV

To convert Millivolt to Kilovolt, divide the value by 1000000 (equivalently, multiply by 1.0000e-6). To convert Kilovolt back to Millivolt, multiply by 1000000.

Example: convert 10 mV to kV:
10 mV = 10 x 1.0000e-6 = 1.0000e-5 kV

Millivolt

Definition: A millivolt (mV) is a unit of electric potential equal to one thousandth (10⁻³) of a volt. It is a subunit of the base unit, the volt, in the International System of Units (SI).

History/origin: The volt is named in honor of Italian physicist Alessandro Volta. The millivolt, as a decimal multiple of the volt, was naturally derived as a smaller, more convenient unit for measuring smaller voltages.

Current use: Millivolts are used to measure small voltages in applications such as sensors, biomedical devices, thermocouples, and precision electronic circuits. It's a practical unit for measuring tiny changes in potential.

Kilovolt

Definition: A kilovolt (kV) is a unit of electric potential equal to one thousand (10³) volts. It is a multiple of the base unit, the volt, in the International System of Units (SI).

History/origin: The volt is named in honor of Italian physicist Alessandro Volta. The kilovolt, as a decimal multiple of the volt, was derived as a larger unit for measuring high voltages.

Current use: Kilovolts are used to measure high voltages in power transmission lines, X-ray machines, and other high-voltage equipment. It is a convenient unit for expressing the magnitude of these large voltages.

Millivolt [mV] to Kilovolt [kV] Converter

What is 1 mV in kV?
1 Millivolt (mV) equals 0.000001 kV, and 1 kV equals 1,000,000 mV.
How do I convert Millivolt to Kilovolt?
Divide by 1,000,000: 10 mV ÷ 1,000,000 = 0.00001 kV. The converter above does it for any value, with the precision you choose.
What is 100 mV in kV?
100 mV = 0.0001 kV. Common amounts are listed on this page, each with its own step-by-step page.
Is a Millivolt bigger than a Kilovolt?
No. 1 mV is only 0.000001 kV: it takes 1,000,000 mV to make 1 kV.
