What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms electric field strength measurements from statvolt per inch, a cgs electrostatic unit, to volt per centimeter, an SI-compatible unit widely used in engineering and applied physics. It facilitates the comparison and application of legacy electrostatic data within modern frameworks.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in statvolt/inch you wish to convert
  • Select the target unit as volt/centimeter
  • Use the provided conversion factor to obtain the equivalent value
  • Apply the results for analysis or comparison with modern electric field data

Key Features

  • Converts electric field strength between statvolt/inch and volt/centimeter units
  • Supports translation of classical electrostatic literature values into modern SI units
  • Useful for high-voltage engineering, plasma research, insulation testing, and accelerator physics
  • Includes clear definitions and relevant application contexts for both units

Examples

  • 2 stV/in equals 236.056692906 V/cm by multiplying 2 by 118.028346453
