To convert a measurement in kilovolts to a measurement in microvolts, multiply the voltage by the following conversion ratio: 1,000,000,000 microvolts/kilovolt.

Since one kilovolt is equal to 1,000,000,000 microvolts, you can use this simple formula to convert:

microvolts = kilovolts × 1,000,000,000

The voltage in microvolts is equal to the voltage in kilovolts multiplied by 1,000,000,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 kilovolts to microvolts using the formula above.
microvolts = (5 kV × 1,000,000,000) = 5,000,000,000 µV

How Many Microvolts Are in a Kilovolt?

There are 1,000,000,000 microvolts in a kilovolt, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 kV = 1,000,000,000 µV

Kilovolts and microvolts are both units used to measure voltage. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Kilovolt?

One kilovolt is equal to 1,000 volts, which are the potential difference that would move one ampere of current against one ohm of resistance.

The kilovolt is a multiple of the volt, which is the SI derived unit for voltage. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kilovolts can be abbreviated as kV; for example, 1 kilovolt can be written as 1 kV.

What Is a Microvolt?

One microvolt is equal to 1/1,000,000 of a volt, which is the potential difference that would move one ampere of current against one ohm of resistance.

The microvolt is a multiple of the volt, which is the SI derived unit for voltage. In the metric system, "micro" is the prefix for millionths, or 10-6. Microvolts can be abbreviated as µV; for example, 1 microvolt can be written as 1 µV.
