- A unit of potential equal to a thousand volts
- The volt (symbol: V) is the SI derived unit of electromotive force, commonly called "voltage". It is also the unit for the related but slightly different quantity electric potential difference (also called "electrostatic potential difference"). ...
- One thousand ( 10^3 ) volts. Symbol: kV or KV
- (Kilovolts (kV)) 1 kilovolt = 1,000 volts.
- A measure of voltage. Common transmission voltages on CAPX member systems are 34.5 kV, 41.6 kV, 69 kV, 115 kV, 161 kV, 230 kV and 345 kV.
- Electrical potential equal to 1,000 volts. Most car batteries are 12-volt, so 1 kV is the juice that could be produced by 83.3 car batteries.
- Equal to one thousand volts. This unit of measurement is most commonly used when describing transmission and distribution lines. Distribution and transmission lines in Alberta carry between 4 kV (4,000 volts) and 500 kV (500,000 volts).
- (1) a unit of electromotive force equal to 1000 volts; (2) a standard measure for the relationship between the intensity of an electromagnetic field and the distance between the electrodes generating the field used in electrostatic flocking.
- This is a measure of voltage and represents 1,000 volts.
