How the formula works
Both megavolt and kilovolt measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in megavolts by 1000 to get kilovolts. To reverse the conversion, multiply a kilovolt value by 0.001 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 Kilovolt (kV)?
A Kilovolt (kV) equals 1,000 volt(s), a scaled unit of electric potential used for kilo-scale electrical work.
How do I convert megavolts to kilovolts?
Multiply the megavolt value by 1000 to get the equivalent in kilovolts. For example, 5 MV × 1000 = 5000 kV.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1000 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert kilovolts back to megavolts?
Yes. Divide the kilovolt value by 1000, or multiply it by 0.001, to get megavolts.
