Convert Abvolt to Megavolt
Convert abvolts to megavolts by entering a value below.
How to Convert Abvolts to Megavolts
The abvolt and megavolt are both units of voltage. By definition, 1 megavolt equals exactly 1e14 abvolts. This means to convert abvolts to megavolts, you divide by 1e14.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 abV to megavolts:
We need to convert abvolts to megavolts
Since 1 MV = 1e14 abV, divide by 1e14
5 ÷ 1e14 = 5e-14
5 abV = 5e-14 MV

About These Units
Abvolt (abV)
The abvolt (abV) is the CGS electromagnetic unit of voltage equal to 10⁻⁸ volts or 10 nanovolts. One volt = 10⁸ abvolts exactly. Defined so that 1 erg of work moves 1 abcoulomb through 1 abvolt. Found in older electromagnetic theory texts. Impractically small.
Megavolt (MV)
A megavolt (MV) equals 1,000,000 volts. Lightning strikes: 100-300 MV. Van de Graaff generators: 5-25 MV. Particle accelerators: linear accelerators produce MV gradients. X-ray machines for cargo inspection: 1-10 MV. Extreme voltage requiring massive insulation.
