What does one centihenry represent?

A centihenry (cH) is a unit of inductance equal to one hundredth of a henry (0.01 H), measuring a conductor's ability to induce voltage opposing current changes.

When should I use terahenry units?

Terahenry (TH) units are used to express extremely large inductances, such as those in theoretical physics or astrophysical electromagnetic models.

Why do converted values become very small?

Since a terahenry equals 10^12 henries, converting from centihenry involves a scale difference of 10^-14, causing very small numerical results.
