==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
'''Nanovolts''' ('''nV''') are a [[unit]] of [[Electrical Current|current]] 1,000,000,000 times smaller than the [[SI Unit]]; the [[Volt]].
===About Microvolts===
: '''Nanovolts''' are shortened to '''nV''' with a lower case n and an upper case V.
: [[Nano]] means one billionth so there are 1,000,000,000 [[nanovolt]]s in a [[Volt]].
