A petahenry is an SI-derived inductance unit representing 10^15 henry, used to describe extremely large inductances often in theoretical or astrophysical contexts.

Why convert petahenry to abhenry?

Converting petahenry to abhenry helps translate large SI inductance values into the cgs-emu system for comparing with older literature and theoretical work that uses legacy units.

Is the abhenry unit still used?

The abhenry is mainly a historical unit now replaced by the henry in SI; it remains relevant for contexts using the centimetre–gram–second electromagnetic system.

Can I use this converter for everyday electronics?

No, petahenry and abhenry units are generally unsuitable for typical electronic devices and are mostly used in theoretical or large-scale research.
