Convert electrical resistivity units including ohm-meters, ohm-centimeters, ohm-inches, microohm-centimeters, microohm-meters, circular mil ohms per foot, and more.
Ohm-meters to ohm-centimeters:
1 Ω·m = 100 Ω·cm
Ohm-centimeters to ohm-meters:
1 Ω·cm = 0.01 Ω·m
Microohm-centimeters to ohm-meters:
1 µΩ·cm = 0.00000001 Ω·m
Ohm-inches to ohm-meters:
1 Ω·in = 0.0254 Ω·m
Resistivity conversions are useful for wire and cable materials, copper and aluminum conductors, semiconductor materials, soil resistivity, grounding design, electrical testing, material data sheets, and circuit engineering.
Use this converter when comparing SI, metric, U.S. customary, and conductor-material resistivity units.
Your result shows the entered electrical resistivity 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 resistivity unit matches your wire table, soil test, conductor data sheet, semiconductor data, or calculation sheet.
Electrical resistivity is a material property that describes how strongly a material resists electric current.
The SI unit of electrical resistivity is the ohm-meter, abbreviated as Ω·m.
No. Resistivity is a material property, while resistance depends on the material, length, and cross-sectional area.
One ohm-meter equals 100 ohm-centimeters.
This converter is designed for resistivity magnitude conversions, so it uses non-negative values.
