Statohm

stΩ

Definition

A unit of electrical resistance in the CGS electrostatic system. One statohm equals approximately 8.987552 × 10^11 ohms, making it a very large unit of electrical resistance.

History/Origin

Part of the CGS electrostatic unit system, where the prefix "stat" indicates electrostatic units. The value is related to the speed of light in vacuum and the permittivity of free space.

Current Use

Used in some areas of physics, particularly in electromagnetic theory, plasma physics, and certain research applications where the CGS system is preferred.

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.
