About Microsiemens per centimetre

The microsiemens per centimetre (µS/cm) equals 10⁻⁴ S/m and is the standard unit for drinking-water conductivity monitoring (50-800 µS/cm) and surface-water quality surveys. Regulatory thresholds for potable water are often set in µS/cm; hand-held probes for aquaculture and hydroponics report in µS/cm. 1 µS/cm = 100 µS/m = 10⁻⁴ S/m.

About Picosiemens per metre

The picosiemens per metre (pS/m) equals 10⁻¹² S/m, the scale for the most resistive solid dielectrics: amber (~10⁻¹⁴ S/m), borosilicate glass (~10⁻¹² S/m), and PTFE (<10⁻¹⁵ S/m). A material with 1 TΩ·m bulk resistivity has conductivity of exactly 1 pS/m. 1 pS/m = 10⁻¹² S/m = 10⁻´ µS/m.
