What does 1 mho/centimeter represent?

It represents electrical conductivity measuring the ability to conduct current per centimeter and is equivalent to 100 mho/meter.

Why convert from mho/cm to mho/m?

Converting helps switch between legacy and SI units, making it easier to compare measurements across different scientific and industrial fields.

Are there any limitations to using this conversion?

Yes, since both units are legacy, modern measurements use siemens per meter. Also, the conversion assumes materials are uniform, which may not always apply.
