How to convert volts per meter to kilovolts per meter
kV/m = V/m × 0.001Multiply the value in volts per meter by 0.001. To go the other way, multiply by 1,000 (or divide by 0.001).
A volt per meter is smaller than a kilovolt per meter: it takes 1,000 volts per meter to make one kilovolt per meter.
Worked examples
- 1 volt per meter1 V/m × 0.001 = 0.001 kV/m
- 5 volts per meter5 V/m × 0.001 = 0.005 kV/m
- 10 volts per meter10 V/m × 0.001 = 0.01 kV/m
- 20 volts per meter20 V/m × 0.001 = 0.02 kV/m
- 100 volts per meter100 V/m × 0.001 = 0.1 kV/m

About the units
Volt per meter (V/m)
The volt per meter (V/m) is a unit of electric field strength in the International System of Units (SI).
Kilovolt per meter (kV/m)
The kilovolt per meter (kV/m) is a unit of electric field strength in the International System of Units (SI). One kilovolt per meter equals 1,000 volts per meter (V/m).
Frequently asked questions
How many kilovolts per meter are in one volt per meter?
There are 0.001 kilovolts per meter in one volt per meter, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert volts per meter to kilovolts per meter?
Multiply the number of volts per meter by 0.001. For example, 10 V/m × 0.001 = 0.01 kV/m.
How many volts per meter are in one kilovolt per meter?
One kilovolt per meter equals 1,000 volts per meter. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 0.001.
What is 10 volts per meter in kilovolts per meter?
10 V/m = 0.01 kV/m.
Is this V/m to kV/m converter accurate?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
