Milliweber quick reference
| Milliweber | Weber | Maxwell | Microweber |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mWb | = 0.001 Wb | = 100000 Mx | = 1000 µWb |
| 10 mWb | = 0.01 Wb | = 1000000 Mx | = 10000 µWb |
| 100 mWb | = 0.1 Wb | = 10000000 Mx | = 100000 µWb |
| 1000 mWb | = 1 Wb | = 100000000 Mx | = 1000000 µWb |
Where the milliweber fits
The next smaller magnetic flux unit is the kilomaxwell (kMx). 1 mWb = 100 kMx, and 1 kMx = 0.01 mWb.
The next larger magnetic flux unit is the weber (Wb). 1 mWb = 0.001 Wb, and 1 Wb = 1000 mWb.
