You can use this form to select from known units:
The SI prefix "centi" represents a factor of 10-2, or in exponential notation, 1E-2.
So 1 centihenry = 10-2 henries.
The definition of a henry is as follows:
The henry (symbol: H) is the SI unit of inductance. It is named after Joseph Henry (1797-1878), the American scientist who discovered electromagnetic induction independently of and at about the same time as Michael Faraday (1791-1867) in England.
