About Volts
The volt (V) is the SI derived unit of electric potential, defined as 1 joule per coulomb (1 J/C = 1 W/A = 1 kg·m²·A⁻¹·s⁻³). Named after Alessandro Volta who built the first electrochemical battery in 1800. Common benchmarks: a fresh AA alkaline cell is 1.5 V; USB 2.0 supplies 5 V; a car lead-acid battery is 12 V; household electricity in Europe is 230 V RMS. The volt is reproduced internationally via the Josephson voltage standard.
About Abvolts
The abvolt (abV) equals exactly 10⁻⁸ V - the electric potential unit of the CGS-EMU (electromagnetic) system, defined as 1 erg per abcoulomb (= 10⁻⁷ J / 10 C). One abvolt per centimetre is the corresponding electric field unit (abV/cm). The abvolt appears in nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century electromagnetic engineering texts and in nuclear physics tables where CGS-EMU units are retained. 1 abV = 10⁻⁸ V = 10 nV.
