How to Convert Megavolts to Abvolts

To convert megavolts to abvolts, multiply the voltage by the following conversion ratio: 1e+14 abvolts/megavolt.

Since one megavolt is equal to 1e+14 abvolts, you can use this simple formula to convert:

abvolts = megavolts × 1e+14

The voltage in abvolts is equal to the voltage in megavolts multiplied by 1e+14.

For example, here's how to convert 5 megavolts to abvolts using the formula above.

abvolts = (5 MV × 1e+14) = 5e+14 abV

How Many Abvolts Are in a Megavolt?

There are 1e+14 abvolts in a megavolt, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 MV = 1e+14 abV|1 abV = 1e-14 MV

Our megavolt to abvolt calculator automatically converts your voltage measurements with full decimal and scientific precision across US customary, imperial, and SI metric standards.

Megavolts and abvolts are both units used to measure voltage. Keep reading to learn more about each unit.

What Is a Megavolt?

A megavolt is a unit of voltage equal to 1,000,000 volts (V), the base unit for voltage. Equal to 1,000,000 Volts. [1]

The megavolt is classified as a metric and SI-compatible unit of voltage. Megavolts can be abbreviated as MV; for example, 1 megavolt can be written as 1 MV.

In the metric system, "mega" is the standard SI prefix for millions, or 10⁶. This makes the megavolt (MV) a convenient decimal multiple of the volt (V).

In practice, megavolts (MV) are widely used across large-scale industrial, bulk, and macro-level voltage specifications within SI metric workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.

What Is an Abvolt?

An abvolt is a unit of voltage equal to 1/100,000,000 of a volt (0.00000001 V). CGS electromagnetic voltage unit (10⁻⁸ V). [2]

The abvolt is classified as a standard unit of voltage. Abvolts can be abbreviated as abV; for example, 1 abvolt can be written as 1 abV.

When working with abvolts (abV) in formulas or technical specifications, always verify whether your target system uses SI metric, US customary, or British imperial standards.

In practice, abvolts (abV) are widely used across fine-tolerance laboratory, analytical, and micro-scale voltage measurements within international standard workflows, engineering documentation, and technical data sheets.

When converting voltage between megavolts (MV) and abvolts (abV), keep full floating-point precision (1 MV = 1e+14 abV; 1 abV = 1e-14 MV) during intermediate calculations and round only the final abvolt figure to match your instrument tolerance.
