Kilovolts to Gigavolts Conversion
Enter the voltage in kilovolts below to get the value converted to gigavolts.
How to Convert Kilovolts to Gigavolts
To convert a kilovolt measurement to a gigavolt measurement, divide the voltage by the conversion ratio. One gigavolt is equal to 1,000,000 kilovolts, so use this simple formula to convert:
The voltage in gigavolts is equal to the kilovolts divided by 1,000,000.
Kilovolts and gigavolts are both units used to measure voltage. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Kilovolts
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 103. Kilovolts can be abbreviated as kV; for example, 1 kilovolt can be written as 1 kV.
Gigavolts
One gigavolt is equal to 1,000,000,000 volts, which are the potential difference that would move one ampere of current against one ohm of resistance.
The gigavolt is a multiple of the volt, which is the SI derived unit for voltage. In the metric system, "giga" is the prefix for 109. Gigavolts can be abbreviated as GV; for example, 1 gigavolt can be written as 1 GV.
