Where conductivity conversions are used

Conductivity conversions are useful for copper and aluminum conductors, semiconductor materials, water quality testing, soil conductivity, grounding design, resistivity comparisons, sensors, and material testing.

Use this converter when comparing SI, metric, mho-based, and water-testing conductivity units.

What your conductivity result means

Your result shows the entered electrical conductivity converted from the starting unit into the selected ending unit. The calculator also shows the conversion rate used so you can verify the calculation.

For electrical design and material comparisons, make sure the conductivity unit matches your material table, water test reading, soil test, wire reference, sensor output, or calculation sheet.

Frequently asked questions

What is electrical conductivity?

Electrical conductivity is a material property that describes how easily electric current flows through a material.

What is the SI unit of electrical conductivity?

The SI unit of electrical conductivity is siemens per meter, abbreviated as S/m.

Is conductivity the opposite of resistivity?

Yes. Electrical conductivity is the reciprocal of electrical resistivity.

How many S/m are in one S/cm?

One siemens per centimeter equals 100 siemens per meter.

Can I convert negative conductivity values?

This converter is designed for conductivity magnitude conversions, so it uses non-negative values.
