Conversion Formula
V/m = µV/m × 1.000000000e-6
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 metre
The volt per metre (V/m) is the SI coherent unit of electric field strength, equal to 1 N/C = 1 kg·m·A⁻¹·s⁻³. The fair-weather atmospheric surface electric field averages 100-200 V/m; a 1 W isotropic antenna produces about 5.5 V/m at 1 m; thunderstorm clouds build surface fields of 10 000-100 000 V/m before lightning discharge. 1 V/m = 1 N/C.
