What Is This Tool?

This tool converts electric field strength values between kilovolt per inch (kV/in) and volt per mil (V/mil). It simplifies switching units used in fields such as high-voltage engineering and electronic design for precise specification of dielectric strengths and insulation clearances.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the numeric value in kilovolt per inch (kV/in) you want to convert
  • Select kilovolt/inch as the input unit and volt/mil as the output unit
  • Click the convert button to see the equivalent value in volt/mil (V/mil)
  • Use the result to specify dielectric strengths or clearance distances as needed

Key Features

  • Converts between kilovolt/inch and volt/mil units used in electric field strength measurements
  • Provides a straightforward 1:1 conversion rate for easy calculation
  • Supports applications in high-voltage testing, PCB design, and insulation specification
  • Browser-based and simple to use without requiring technical knowledge

Examples

  • 5 kV/in = 5 V/mil
  • 0.1 kV/in = 0.1 V/mil

Common Use Cases

  • Defining dielectric strength and clearance requirements for insulating materials and high-voltage apparatus
  • Setting spark-gap voltages and applied fields in high-voltage tests and research
  • Specifying clearance and dielectric strength in printed circuit board manufacturing and design
  • Evaluating electric field intensity in wire insulation and electronic component qualification

Tips & Best Practices

  • Understand that the unit conversion is numerically 1:1 but applied contexts differ
  • Use kV/in mainly in high-voltage engineering and V/mil in electronic and PCB design contexts
  • Ensure units align with industry standards and measurement scales for accurate interpretation
  • Apply the converted values carefully according to the specific device sizes and testing procedures

Limitations

  • Although conversion is numerically equal, the physical context and measurement scales vary
  • Interpretation depends on procedural standards and device dimensions in particular industries
  • Users should apply units appropriately to avoid misapplication across different technical fields
