Megasiemens

Definition

A metric unit of electric conductance equal to one million siemens. Used for measuring very high conductance values in large electrical systems and high-conductivity materials.

History/Origin

Derived from the siemens unit with the mega prefix, representing 10^6 siemens. Used in electrical engineering for measuring conductance in large-scale electrical systems and high-conductivity applications.

Current Use

Used in power engineering and large-scale electrical systems for measuring very high conductance values. Common in industrial applications where large amounts of current flow through highly conductive materials.

Mho

℧

Definition

An older unit of electric conductance equal to one siemens, representing the inverse of resistance. The name "mho" is "ohm" spelled backwards, reflecting its relationship to resistance.

History/Origin

Created as the inverse of the ohm unit for measuring electrical conductance. The name "mho" (ohm spelled backwards) was used before the adoption of the siemens as the official SI unit of conductance.

Current Use

Still used in some electrical engineering contexts and older technical literature. Gradually being replaced by the siemens unit in modern electrical engineering practice and international standards.
