Understanding the Units

What is a Megavolt?

The volt is the SI derived unit of electric potential difference, equal to one joule per coulomb (1 V = 1 J/C = 1 W/A).

Named after Alessandro Volta (1745–1827), Italian physicist who invented the first electrical battery.

Common contexts: power systems, electronics, batteries.
