Frequently Asked Questions
How many Millisiemens are in 1 Siemens?
Exactly 1,000 Millisiemens. One Siemens equals 1,000 Millisiemens (1 S = 10³ mS). Conversely, 1 Millisiemens equals 0.001 Siemens (1 mS = 10⁻³ S).
What is the relationship between Conductance (G) and Resistance (R)?
Conductance and resistance are exact mathematical reciprocals: G = 1 / R and R = 1 / G. A circuit branch with a resistance of 100 ohms has a conductance of 1 / 100 = 0.01 Siemens = 10 Millisiemens.
Is a Siemens the same as a Mho?
Yes. The mho (symbol ℧) was the historical American and British unit for conductance, defined as ohm spelled backward. The 14th General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) in 1971 officially adopted the Siemens (S) as the coherent SI standard unit, where 1 Siemens = 1 Mho.
