What is the EMU of capacitance unit?

It is the unit of electrical capacitance defined in the electromagnetic subsystem of the centimetre–gram–second system, used primarily in classical electrodynamics.

Why convert EMU of capacitance to microfarad?

Converting to microfarad translates theoretical or historical capacitance data into SI units commonly used in electronics design and component specifications.

Can I use the conversion results for practical electronic components?

Due to the very large values obtained in microfarads, the results are typically relevant for theory rather than specifying discrete capacitors.
