Volts per millimeter to volts per meter
Type a value in V/mm to get it in V/m instantly.
1,000V/m
That's 2× as strong as near an appliance, while under a power line is 5× stronger. Across a 1 mm gap that would need about 1 V.
What it means
How strong is that field?
Air breaks down around 3 MV/m in dry conditions. Humidity, sharp points and dust all lower that figure.
The math
How to convert V/mm to V/m
To convert volts per millimeter to volts per meter, multiply by 1,000.
Example: 1 V/mm × 1,000 = 1,000 V/m.
In the other direction, 1 V/m = 0.001 V/mm.
