µΩ·m = abΩ·cm × 1.000000000e-5
About Abohm-centimetres
The abohm-centimetre (abΩ·cm) is the resistivity unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 10⁻⁹ Ω × 0.01 m = 10⁻¹¹ Ω·m. It appears in nineteenth-century electromagnetic analysis of telegraph cables and dynamo windings; silver, the best metallic conductor, has resistivity ≈1.59 nΩ·m = 159 abΩ·cm. 1 abΩ·cm = 10⁻¹¹ Ω·m.
About Microohm-metres
The microohm-metre (µΩ·m) equals 10⁻⁶ Ω·m and is numerically identical to 1 Ω·mm²/m used in the cable industry. Nichrome resistance wire has resistivity ≈1.0-1.1 µΩ·m; stainless steel is 0.69-0.72 µΩ·m; manganin alloy (for precision shunts) is about 0.48 µΩ·m. 1 µΩ·m = 10⁻⁶ Ω·m = 1 Ω·mm²/m.
