What is the femtohenry unit used for?

Femtohenry measures extremely small inductances typical in microelectronics and high-frequency circuits, representing 10^-15 henry.

Why convert femtohenry to stathenry?

Conversion is useful for interpreting older scientific work or theoretical calculations using the cgs electrostatic system rather than the SI system.

Is stathenry commonly used today?

No, stathenry is rarely applied in modern engineering and mainly appears in theoretical or historical contexts.
