==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
'''Microvolts''' ('''µV''') are a [[unit]] of [[Electrical Current|current]] 1,000,000 times smaller than the [[SI Unit]]; the [[Volt]].
===About Microvolts===
: '''Microvolts''' are shortened to '''µV''' with the Greek letter µ and an upper case V.
: [[Micro]] means one millionth so there are 1,000,000 [[microvolt]]s in a [[Volt]].
