Volts (V) and megavolts (MV) are units of measurement used to quantify electrical potential difference or voltage. Voltage refers to the force that drives electric current through a circuit, and it is a fundamental concept in the field of electronics and electrical engineering.
Volts (V)
A volt is the SI (International System of Units) unit of electrical potential difference. It’s defined as the potential difference across a conductor when a current of one ampere flows through it, dissipating one watt of power. In simpler terms, it measures how much electrical “push” or energy is present in a circuit. For example, the voltage of a standard household electrical outlet in many countries is around 120 or 230 volts.
Megavolts (MV)
A megavolt is a unit that represents one million volts. It’s commonly used in situations where extremely high voltages are involved, such as in power transmission systems or certain industrial applications. Megavolts are used when dealing with large-scale electrical systems where the voltage levels are well beyond the range of everyday devices and appliances.
How to convert volts to megavolts
1 V = 10-6 MV = 0.000001 MV
or
1 MV = 106 V = 1000000 V
Volts to megavolts formula
V(MV) = V(V) / 1000000
Example – Convert 800 Volts to MV
Ans. V(MV) = 800 / 1000000 = 0.0008 MV

FAQs on Volts to megavolts
How do you convert V to mV?
To convert volts (V) to millivolts (mV), simply multiply the voltage value in volts by 1000.
What is 1 volt in mV?
1 volt is equal to 1000 millivolts (mV).
How do you convert 3V to mV?
To convert 3 volts (3V) to millivolts, multiply 3 by 1000. Thus, 3 volts is equivalent to 3000 millivolts (mV).
What is 1 mega volt?
1 megavolt (MV) is equal to 1 million volts. It can be written as 1,000,000 volts.
What is 5 volts in mV?
5 volts is equivalent to 5000 millivolts (mV). To convert, multiply 5 by 1000.
Is 100mA equal to 1 Amp?
No, 100 milliamperes (mA) is equal to 0.1 amperes (A) or 0.1 Amp. 1 Amp is equal to 1000 milliamperes (mA).
What is 5 mV into V?
To convert 5 millivolts (mV) to volts (V), divide 5 by 1000. Therefore, 5 millivolts is equal to 0.005 volts.
