How to Convert Kilovolts to Megavolts
To convert kilovolts to megavolts, divide the value by 1000.
The Formula
Megavolts = Kilovolts ÷ 1000
Key Fact
1 megavolt = 1000 kilovolts
Tip: To convert megavolts back to kilovolts, multiply by 1000.
Kilovolts to Megavolts
Convert kilovolts (kV) to megavolts (MV) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.

MV
1 kV = 0.001 MV
Full precision:0.001 MV
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 kilovolts to megavolts, we divide by 1000 because one megavolt equals exactly 1000 kilovolts.
1 megavolt = 1000 kilovolts
Since there are 1000 kilovolts in every megavolt, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001 megavolts
So 1 kilovolts = 0.001 megavolts.
Quick check: 0.001 × 1000 = 1 kilovolts
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 kV = 0.001 MV
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001
Example 2: 5 kV = 0.005 MV
5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005
5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005
Example 3: 10 kV = 0.01 MV
10 ÷ 1000 = 0.01
10 ÷ 1000 = 0.01
