What is EMU of inductance?

EMU of inductance, also known as abhenry, is a unit from the cgs-EMU system that measures magnetic flux linkage per unit current, equivalent to 10⁻⁹ henry in SI units.

Why convert EMU of inductance to gigahenry?

Converting helps translate very small inductance values from historical CGS-EMU data into SI units with large-scale prefixes to integrate with modern scientific and engineering calculations.

Is this conversion useful for everyday engineering?

Due to the extreme difference in magnitude, this conversion is mostly relevant for scientific research, astrophysics, and specific electrical engineering contexts rather than common engineering tasks.
