decivolt to gigavolt
Convert decivolt (dV) to gigavolt (GV). Use an editable voltage converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 dV = 1e-10 GV
Conversion formula
One decivolt equals 1e-10 gigavolt. Multiply your value in decivolt by this factor to get gigavolt. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 decivolt:5 × 1e-10 = 5e-10 GV

About these measurements
Voltage is electric potential difference.
The base reference used here is the volt. One decivolt is 0.1 base units; one gigavolt is 1,000,000,000 base units.
Important distinctions
This converts units, not RMS, peak, or peak-to-peak representations.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert dV to GV?
Multiply the quantity in dV by 1e-10. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the gigavolt to decivolt converter.
