abvolt
/ˈæbˌvoʊlt/
noun
- A unit of electric potential in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, equal to one hundred millionth of a volt (10⁻⁸ V).
- In some older physics textbooks, voltage is measured in abvolts rather than volts.
- One abvolt is an extremely small unit, rarely used in modern electronics.
- The scientist calculated the potential difference in abvolts for the experiment.
