About Nanofarads per centimetre

The nanofarad per centimetre (nF/cm) equals 10⁻⁷ F/m, used in power cable and high-voltage capacitor characterisation. High-voltage XLPE power cables (230 kV) have capacitance per unit length of 0.1-0.2 nF/cm; oil-impregnated paper capacitors used in power factor correction banks are characterised in nF/cm. 1 nF/cm = 10⁻⁷ F/m = 10³ pF/cm.

About Kilofarads per metre

The kilofarad per metre (kF/m) equals 10³ F/m, appearing in theoretical models of heavily screened plasmas and ionic liquids at very low frequencies. The London penetration depth model for superconductors treated as a dielectric gives effective permittivities of 10³-10⁶ F/m in the microwave range; ionic double-layer capacitance per unit length of nanowire electrodes scales to kF/m. 1 kF/m = 10³ F/m.
