How the formula works
Both kilovolt and decavolt measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in kilovolts by 100 to get decavolts. To reverse the conversion, multiply a decavolt value by 0.01 to get back to kilovolts.
Frequently asked questions
What is Kilovolt (kV)?
A Kilovolt (kV) equals 1,000 volt(s), a scaled unit of electric potential used for kilo-scale electrical work.
What is Decavolt (daV)?
A Decavolt (daV) equals 10 volt(s), a scaled unit of electric potential used for deca-scale electrical work.
How do I convert kilovolts to decavolts?
Multiply the kilovolt value by 100 to get the equivalent in decavolts. For example, 5 kV × 100 = 500 daV.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 100 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert decavolts back to kilovolts?
Yes. Divide the decavolt value by 100, or multiply it by 0.01, to get kilovolts.
