What Is This Tool?
This converter helps translate electric field strength values measured in statvolt per inch (stV/in), a unit from the cgs electrostatic system, into kilovolt per inch (kV/in), a non‑SI unit commonly used in high-voltage engineering. It facilitates updating historical or specialized electrostatic data into units suitable for modern applications.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the electric field value in statvolt per inch (stV/in)
- Select 'statvolt/inch' as the input unit and 'kilovolt/inch' as the output unit
- Click the convert button to see the result in kilovolt per inch (kV/in)
- Use the converted value for engineering calculations or data comparison
Key Features
- Converts electric field strength from statvolt/inch to kilovolt/inch
- Based on established conversion rate: 1 stV/in = 0.299792 kV/in
- Supports legacy measurement updates for modern engineering use
- Useful for electrostatics research and high-voltage equipment design
Examples
- 5 stV/in converts to approximately 1.49896 kV/in
- 10 stV/in converts to approximately 2.99792 kV/in
Common Use Cases
- Interpreting electric field strengths in historical electrostatics literature
- Designing insulation and clearance distances in high-voltage equipment
- Performing laboratory tests involving spark gaps and corona discharge
- Converting legacy cgs measurements for comparison with modern standards
Tips & Best Practices
- Always verify the unit system before converting between statvolt/inch and kilovolt/inch
- Use the conversion to bring older cgs-based data into a context suitable for modern engineering
- Remember that kilovolt/inch is not an SI unit; further conversion to volts per meter may be necessary
- Consider the historical context when interpreting statvolt/inch measurements
Limitations
- Statvolt/inch is a primarily historical unit not compatible with the SI system
- Kilovolt/inch is also not an SI unit and lacks universal standardization
- Accurate conversion requires awareness of differences between unit systems
- This converter does not perform further conversion into SI units like volts per meter
