Kilovolts to Volts Converter

Convert kilovolts (kV) to volts (V) as you type — 1 kV = 1,000 V. Switch units, change the precision or copy the result.

How to use this tool

Steps for using the Unit Converter.

  1. Enter a value in From — kilovolts are already selected.
  2. The result in volts appears instantly. Change either unit to convert to anything else in voltage.
  3. Use the swap button for the reverse conversion, and set the decimal places you need.
  4. Turn on Show formula to see the calculation, then copy or share the result.

How to convert kilovolts to volts

Converting transmission-line, X-ray tube or insulation-test voltages to volts.

To convert kilovolts to volts, use V = kV × 1000. One kilovolt equals 1,000 volts, and one volt equals 0.001 kilovolts.

Kilovolt (kV): 1,000 V. Volt (V): 1 W/A, the SI unit of voltage.

For the opposite direction, use the Volts to kilovolts converter. All voltage units are on the voltage converter.

Limitations

  • Results are rounded to the decimal places you choose; the calculation itself keeps full precision.

Frequently asked questions

How many volts are in a kilovolt?

1 kV = 1,000 V. Multiply kilovolts by 1000 (or use V = kV × 1000).

How do I convert kilovolts to volts?

Use V = kV × 1000. For example, 1 kV = 1,000 V and 10 kV = 10,000 V.

How many millivolts are in a volt?

1,000.

What is a typical mains voltage?

Around 230 V in most of Europe, Asia and Africa, and 120 V in North America.
