Kilovolt or 1000 volts. 1KV is 1000 volts, 2KV is 2000 volts.
Kilo stands for 1000.
When you say BDV you might mean the dielectric strength of transformer oil. A new transformer oil should have at lest a dielectric strength of 39 KV. from a British standard.Transformer oils used are normally tested using ASTM D877-82 with the KV strength tester using 1" electrodes spaced 0.1" apart and the test voltage increased at 3,000 volts/min until it breaks down. The average Kv obtained after 8 trials is considered the Oil dielectric strength.Using this test method,dielectric strength at 30 kv and above is considered good. Dielectric strength between 23 to 29Kvis considered usable, but requires filtering. Below 23 kv, the transformer oil should be replaced.Another method ASTM D18747-82 uses the small radius electrodes but spaced only .o4 inches. The test voltage is 500volts/min and increased until breakdown. The dielectric strength is still the average Kv obtained in 8 trials. The dielectric strength of 28-29Kv is considered good. Below 28 kv, the transformer oil is usable but requires filtering. The latter method is considered a better test method

The dielectric breakdown field in air is typically around 3 kV/mm to 6 kV/mm. This is the minimum electric field that can cause air to become conductive and allow current to flow through it.
kv stands for kilovoltage
'VPM' appears to be some non-standard symbol for 'volts per metre', the correct symbol for which is 'V/m'. For insulators, many tables list their dielectric strengths in kilovolts per metre (kV/m) or even kilovolts per millimetre (kV/mm).
5 kV ac means 5 kV rms, which represents a peak voltage of 5 x sqrt (2) kV, or 7.07 kV. So the dc test should provide 7070 volts.

The dielectric strength of air is about 3 kV/mm. This means that air can withstand a certain amount of voltage before it breaks down and conducts electricity. In electrical equipment, a higher dielectric strength of air allows for higher voltages to be used without causing electrical breakdown or short circuits. This helps in ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the equipment.
In SI, the unit of dielectric strength is volts per meter (V/m). In U.S. customary units, dielectric strength is often specified in volts per mil.In physics, dielectric strength 2 meanings:Of an insulating material, the maximum electric field that a pure material can withstand under ideal conditions without breaking down.For a specific configuration of dielectric material and electrodes, the minimum applied electric field that results in breakdown.
There is no city KV. KV stands for Kilo Volts
