Electric Potential Converter
Voltage, or electric potential difference, is the energy per unit of charge that drives current around a circuit. The SI unit is the volt, one joule per coulomb.
1 Volt = 0.001 Kilovolt
How to convert Volt to Kilovolt
One Volt equals 0.001 Kilovolt, so multiply any value in V by 0.001 to get kV. To convert back, divide by 0.001 — or multiply by 1,000.
kV = V × 0.001
Example: 25 V × 0.001 = 0.025 kV.
