About Microvolts per metre

The microvolt per metre (µV/m) equals 10⁻⁶ V/m, the standard unit for the electric component of weak radio-frequency fields measured far from transmitters. GPS L1 signals arrive at Earth's surface at about 4 µV/m; FM broadcast receivers require a minimum of 10-50 µV/m for acceptable reception; regulatory RF exposure limits for base stations are typically set in the range 1-100 µV/m. 1 µV/m = 10⁻⁶ V/m.

About Volts per inch

The volt per inch (V/in) equals exactly 1 / 0.0254 V/m ≈ 39.370 V/m, used in North American high-voltage insulation specifications, PCB design rules, and cable withstand-voltage testing. ANSI/IEEE standards quote insulation withstand voltages per inch of creepage distance; PCB high-voltage layout rules specify minimum clearances rated in V/in; US power-supply withstand tests may state a 1 000 V/in dielectric rating. 1 V/in ≈ 39.370 V/m.
