What is a dekahenry used for?

Dekahenry measures inductance in large power systems, heavy machinery, and research coils, defined as 10 henries.

When would I use petahenry units?

Petahenry units apply when dealing with extremely large inductance values, such as in astrophysics or theoretical electromagnetic calculations.

Why are converted values from daH to PH so small?

Because 1 petahenry equals 10^15 henries, converting dekahenry to petahenry results in very small numerical values.
