Picosiemens per Meter

pS/m

Definition

A very small unit of electric conductivity equal to one trillionth of a siemens per meter. Used for measuring extremely low electrical conductivity in insulating materials.

History/Origin

Derived from the SI prefix pico- (10^-12) combined with the siemens per meter unit. Pico- comes from the Italian word "piccolo" meaning small.

Current Use

Commonly used in electrical engineering and material science to measure the conductivity of highly insulating materials like ceramics, plastics, and pure water.
