How the formula works
Both megavolt and centivolt measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in megavolts by 1.000000e+08 to get centivolts. To reverse the conversion, multiply a centivolt value by 1.000000e-08 to get back to megavolts.
Frequently asked questions
What is Megavolt (MV)?
A Megavolt (MV) equals 1e+6 volt(s), a scaled unit of electric potential used for mega-scale electrical work.
What is Centivolt (cV)?
A Centivolt (cV) equals 1/100 volt(s), a scaled unit of electric potential used for centi-scale electrical work.
How do I convert megavolts to centivolts?
Multiply the megavolt value by 1.000000e+08 to get the equivalent in centivolts. For example, 5 MV × 1.000000e+08 = 5.000000e+08 cV.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e+08 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert centivolts back to megavolts?
Yes. Divide the centivolt value by 1.000000e+08, or multiply it by 1.000000e-08, to get megavolts.
