What Is This Tool?
This tool converts electric conductance values from the non-standard gemmho unit to the SI unit ampere per volt (A/V), also known as siemens (S). It assists users in translating legacy or uncommon conductance units into widely accepted standards for clear electrical component characterization.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in gemmho you want to convert

Tips & Best Practices
-
Verify the unit context since gemmho is not standardized and may cause confusion
-
Prefer using ampere per volt (siemens) for consistency in scientific and engineering work
-
Consider the small magnitude of converted values carefully in precision-sensitive applications
Limitations
-
Gemmho is not officially recognized as a standard unit
-
Conversion values are very small and require attention to detail to avoid accuracy issues
-
Practical use favors ampere/volt to maintain uniformity in measurements
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is gemmho?
-
"Gemmho" is a non-standard unit and not officially recognized; it relates to electric conductance similarly to mho but is not widely accepted.
-
Why convert gemmho to ampere per volt?
-
Converting to ampere per volt (siemens) allows users to apply a standardized SI unit for consistent and accurate conductance measurement in engineering and science.
-
Is ampere per volt the same as the siemens?
-
Yes, ampere per volt (A/V) is the SI unit of electric conductance and is commonly denoted by the siemens (S).
Key Terminology
-
Gemmho
-
A non-standard unit related to electric conductance, not officially recognized and similar in concept to the historical mho.
-
Ampere per volt (A/V)
-
The SI unit of electric conductance, also known as the siemens (S), representing the ease of electric current flow per unit voltage.
-
Electric conductance
-
A measure of how easily electric current passes between two points, defined as the reciprocal of electrical resistance.
