About These Units

ESU of Resistance (esu)

The ESU (electrostatic unit) of resistance is identical to the statohm, equal to approximately 8.99×10¹¹ ohms. Part of the Gaussian CGS system. An enormous unit with no practical application; exists for theoretical completeness only.

Ohm (Ω)

The ohm (Ω) is the SI unit of electrical resistance. Named after Georg Simon Ohm. Defined by Ohm's Law: R = V/I (resistance = voltage ÷ current). Common resistor values: 10Ω to 10MΩ. Human body resistance: 1,000-100,000Ω depending on conditions.
