Microhm

μΩ

Definition

A unit of electrical resistance equal to one millionth of an ohm (10^-6 Ω). Used for measuring very low resistances in conductors and electrical connections.

History/Origin

Part of the metric system with the micro- prefix, representing 10^-6. Essential for precise measurements of conductor resistance and electrical contact resistance.

Current Use

Used in precision electrical measurements, conductor resistance testing, and measuring very low resistances in electrical connections and components.

Ohm

Definition

The ohm is the SI derived unit of electrical resistance, impedance, and reactance. It is defined as the resistance between two points of a conductor when a constant potential difference of one volt produces a current of one ampere.

History/Origin

Named after German physicist Georg Simon Ohm (1789-1854), who formulated Ohm's law. The ohm was officially adopted as the unit of electrical resistance in 1881 at the International Congress of Electricians.

Current Use

Widely used in electrical engineering, electronics, and physics. Essential for measuring resistance in circuits, components, and electrical systems. Standard unit in all electrical calculations and measurements.
