About conductance units
Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance: a component with 2 Ω of resistance has 0.5 S of conductance. This category converts siemens and its prefixes, rather than the related material property conductivity.
Conductance uses siemens (S = A/V), the reciprocal of ohms. Conductivity in S/m or µS/cm includes a length dimension and cannot be obtained from conductance alone without cell geometry.
