Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a microhm used to measure?
- A microhm measures extremely small electrical resistances, such as contact resistance in high-current busbars and precision resistors.
- How is the ohm defined?
- The ohm is the SI derived unit of electrical resistance, defined as the resistance when one volt causes a current of one ampere through a conductor.
- Why are four-terminal methods important in microhm measurements?
- Four-terminal (Kelvin) methods help minimize the errors caused by leads and contacts when measuring very small resistances like microhms.
Key Terminology
- Microhm (µΩ)
- A unit of electrical resistance equal to one millionth of an ohm, used for measuring very small resistances.
- Ohm (Ω)
- The SI derived unit of electrical resistance, representing opposition to electrical current.
- Four-terminal (Kelvin) method
- A measurement technique that reduces errors from leads and contacts when measuring low resistances.
