How to Convert Volts to Kilovolts
To convert volts to kilovolts, divide the value by 1000.
The Formula
Kilovolts = Volts ÷ 1000
Key Fact
1 kilovolt = 1000 volts
Tip: To convert kilovolts back to volts, multiply by 1000.
Volts to Kilovolts
Convert volts (V) to kilovolts (kV) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.
V
kV
1 V = 0.001 kV
Full precision:0.001 kV
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 volts to kilovolts, we divide by 1000 because one kilovolt equals exactly 1000 volts.
1 kilovolt = 1000 volts
Since there are 1000 volts in every kilovolt, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001 kilovolts
So 1 volts = 0.001 kilovolts.
Quick check: 0.001 × 1000 = 1 volts
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 V = 0.001 kV
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001
Example 2: 5 V = 0.005 kV
5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005
5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005
Example 3: 10 V = 0.01 kV
10 ÷ 1000 = 0.01
10 ÷ 1000 = 0.01
