About Statcoulombs per centimetre

The statcoulomb per centimetre (statC/cm) is the linear charge density unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to 10/c C/m where c = 299 792 458 m/s, giving exactly 10/299 792 458 C/m ≈ 3.336 × 10⁻⁸ C/m. It falls between nC/m and µC/m in the SI scale; the electric field of a line charge is written E = 2λ/r in Gaussian units without a 4πε₀ factor. 1 statC/cm ≈ 33.356 nC/m.

About Abcoulombs per centimetre

The abcoulomb per centimetre (abC/cm) is the linear charge density unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 1 abC / 1 cm = 10 C / 0.01 m = 1 000 C/m, exactly equal to 1 kC/m in SI. It appears in nineteenth-century electromagnetic engineering texts on telegraphy cables and in EMU derivations of inductance and capacitance per unit length. 1 abC/cm = 1 000 C/m = 1 kC/m.
