See, the electric field inside the conducting sphere is zero because no charge resides inside its surface. So, by the expression, E = -∂V/∂R V is constant since E is zero. Thus, it will have the same value as it has on the surface i.e., Vcenter = Vsurface Hence, Vcenter = kQ/R [where k = 1/4piE and R is the radii of the sphere]
