About Kilohenries

The kilohenry (kH) equals 10³ H, encountered in the inductance of very-low-frequency (VLF) antenna loading coils and large power-system shunt reactors. Submarine communication transmitters at 10-30 kHz use loading coils of 100-2 000 H = 0.1-2 kH; high-voltage shunt reactors in 400 kV grid substations have inductances of around 100-1 000 H = 0.1-1 kH. 1 kH = 10³ H = 10⁻³ MH.

About Abhenries

The abhenry (abH) is the inductance unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 1 abΩ × 1 s = 10⁻⁹ Ω × 1 s = 10⁻⁹ H, exactly equal to 1 nH in SI. It appears in nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century electromagnetic engineering texts alongside abohms and abamperes; the abhenry was the standard inductance unit in EMU telegraphy and early radio literature. 1 abH = 10⁻⁹ H = 1 nH.
