  • Mho per centimeter is a legacy unit mostly replaced by siemens per meter
  • High numerical values involved may cause computational or rounding challenges

Frequently Asked Questions

What is abmho/centimeter used for?
Abmho/centimeter is a CGS-EMU unit used mainly in historical electromagnetic literature and theoretical problems involving electrical conductivity on a centimetre scale.

Why convert abmho/centimeter to mho/centimeter?
Conversion helps interpret older scientific data and theoretical results in terms familiar to practical laboratory and industrial measurements, since mho/centimeter is a more common legacy unit.

Are mho/centimeter and siemens per meter the same?
No, mho/centimeter is a legacy unit equivalent to 100 siemens per meter, while siemens per meter is the modern SI unit for electrical conductivity.

Key Terminology

Abmho/centimeter
A CGS-EMU unit of electrical conductivity representing one abmho per centimetre, corresponding to 10^11 siemens per metre in SI.
Mho/centimeter
A legacy unit of electrical conductivity equal to one siemens per centimetre, commonly used in practical applications such as water and electrolyte quality monitoring.
CGS-EMU
The centimetre–gram–second electromagnetic system, a historical unit system used in electromagnetic theory.
