## What is Voltage Conversion?

Voltage conversion involves changing electrical potential difference measurements between different units. Voltage, or electromotive force, is fundamental to electrical engineering and electronics. Our converter handles everything from microvolt sensor signals to megavolt power transmission.

// Common Voltage Units Explained

export const Volt (V)

// The SI unit of electrical potential. Named after Alessandro Volta. Common household batteries are 1.5V or 9V.

export const Millivolt (mV)

// One thousandth of a volt. Used for small signals like thermocouple outputs and biosensors.

export const Kilovolt (kV)

// One thousand volts. Used for high-voltage applications like power transmission lines (typically 110-765 kV).

## Frequently Asked Questions

01 ### Q: What is the difference between AC and DC voltage?

/**

AC (alternating current) voltage changes direction periodically, while DC (direct current) flows in one direction. Household outlets provide AC; batteries provide DC.

*/

02 ### Q: Why do different countries use different voltages?

/**

Historical development led to 110-120V in North America and 220-240V in most other countries. Higher voltage is more efficient for transmission but requires different safety standards.
