Frequently Asked Questions

What is an abmho?
An abmho is a historical unit of electrical conductance used in the centimetre–gram–second electromagnetic (CGS-EMU) system, defined as the reciprocal of the abohm.

Why convert abmho to millisiemens?
Converting abmho to millisiemens translates older CGS-EMU conductance values into modern SI units for practical engineering and scientific applications.

How large is 1 abmho in millisiemens?
1 abmho equals 1,000,000,000,000 (one trillion) millisiemens.

Key Terminology

Abmho
A historical CGS-EMU unit of electrical conductance, defined as the reciprocal of the abohm.
Millisiemens [mS]
