Convert Megasiemens per metre to Absiemens per centimetre
Convert Megasiemens per metre (MS/m) to Absiemens per centimetre (abS/cm) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
abS/cm = MS/m × 1.000000000e-5
About Megasiemens per metre
The megasiemens per metre (MS/m) equals 10⁶ S/m, the natural scale for metallic conductors: silver 63 MS/m, copper 59.6 MS/m, gold 45 MS/m, aluminium 37 MS/m, iron ≈10 MS/m. IEC and ASTM wire specifications use %IACS (100% IACS ≡ 58 MS/m); eddy-current and skin-depth calculations for metals work in MS/m. 1 MS/m = 10⁶ S/m.
About Absiemens per centimetre
The absiemens per centimetre (abS/cm) is the CGS-EMU unit of electrical conductivity, exactly 10¹¹ S/m (= 100 GS/m). It appears in nineteenth-century electromagnetic engineering texts alongside abohms and abamperes; no real bulk material at ambient conditions approaches 1 abS/cm. The figure arises in theoretical conductor-scaling and historical performance tables. 1 abS/cm = 10¹¹ S/m.
