How the formula works
Both picovolt and kilovolt measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in picovolts by 1.000000e-15 to get kilovolts. To reverse the conversion, multiply a kilovolt value by 1.000000e+15 to get back to picovolts.
Frequently asked questions
What is Picovolt (pV)?
A Picovolt (pV) equals 1e-12 volt(s), a scaled unit of electric potential used for pico-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 picovolts to kilovolts?
Multiply the picovolt value by 1.000000e-15 to get the equivalent in kilovolts. For example, 5 pV × 1.000000e-15 = 5.000000e-15 kV.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e-15 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert kilovolts back to picovolts?
Yes. Divide the kilovolt value by 1.000000e-15, or multiply it by 1.000000e+15, to get picovolts.
