Gemmho

gemmho

Definition

A unit of electric conductance equal to one millionth of a mho (micro-mho), or one microsiemens. Used in electronics and semiconductor applications for measuring very low conductance values.

History/Origin

Derived from the mho unit with the micro prefix, creating "gemmho" (giga-micro-mho). Used in electronics and semiconductor research before the widespread adoption of the siemens unit system.

Current Use

Used in some electronics and semiconductor applications for measuring very low conductance values. Still referenced in some technical literature and older electronic component specifications.

Kilosiemens

Definition

A metric unit of electric conductance equal to one thousand siemens. Used for measuring high conductance values in electrical engineering and materials science applications.

History/Origin

Derived from the siemens unit with the kilo prefix, representing 10^3 siemens. Commonly used in electrical engineering for measuring conductance in industrial and commercial electrical systems.

Current Use

Extensively used in electrical engineering for measuring high conductance values in power systems, industrial equipment, and large electrical conductors. Common in electrical distribution and transmission systems.
