FAQ

What is the Potential Gradient?
Potential Gradient is the rate of change of electric potential with respect to distance, measured in volts per unit length, in a direction perpendicular to equipotential surfaces. Potential Gradient is usually measured using the Volt per Millimeter for Electric Field Strength. Note that the value of Potential Gradient is always negative.
Can the Potential Gradient be negative?
Yes, the Potential Gradient, measured in Electric Field Strength can be negative.
What unit is used to measure Potential Gradient?
Potential Gradient is usually measured using the Volt per Millimeter[V/mm] for Electric Field Strength. Volt per Meter[V/mm], Kilovolt per Meter[V/mm], Millivolt per Meter[V/mm] are the few other units in which Potential Gradient can be measured.
