How to Convert Megavolts to Gigavolts

To convert a megavolt measurement to a gigavolt measurement, multiply the voltage by the conversion ratio. One megavolt is equal to 0.001 gigavolts, so use this simple formula to convert:

gigavolts = megavolts × 0.001

The voltage in gigavolts is equal to the megavolts multiplied by 0.001.

For example, here's how to convert 5 megavolts to gigavolts using the formula above.

5 MV = (5 × 0.001) = 0.005 GV

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

Megavolts

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

The megavolt is a multiple of the volt, which is the SI derived unit for voltage. In the metric system, "mega" is the prefix for 10⁹. Megavolts can be abbreviated as MV, for example 1 megavolt can be written as 1 MV.

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 10⁶. Gigavolts can be abbreviated as GV, for example 1 gigavolt can be written as 1 GV.
