How many microSiemens in 1 gigamho? The answer is 1.0E+15. We assume you are converting between microsiemens and gigamho. You can view more details on each measurement unit: microSiemens or gigamho The SI derived unit for electric conductance is the siemens. 1 siemens is equal to 1000000 microSiemens, or 1.0E-9 gigamho. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between microsiemens and gigamhos. Type in your own numbers in the form to convert the units!
You can do the reverse unit conversion from gigamho to microSiemens, or enter any two units below:
The SI prefix "micro" represents a factor of 10-6, or in exponential notation, 1E-6.
So 1 microsiemens = 10-6 siemens.
The definition of a siemens is as follows:
The siemens is the SI derived unit of electric conductance. It is equal to inverse ohm. It is named after the German inventor and industrialist Ernst Werner von Siemens, and was previously called the mho. In English, the term siemens is used both for the singular and plural. The 14th General Conference on Weights and Measures approved the addition of the siemens as an SI derived unit in 1971.
The SI prefix "giga" represents a factor of 109, or in exponential notation, 1E9.
So 1 gigamho = 109 mhos.
The definition of a mho is as follows:
The SI derived unit of electric conductance is the siemens, which was previously referred to by the term mho. That term came from spelling ohm backwards and was written with an upside-down capital Greek letter Omega. The term siemens, as it is an SI unit, is used universally in science and primarily in electrical applications, while mho is still used primarily in electronic applications.
