How to Convert Gigohms to Ohms
The gigohm and ohm are both units of electrical resistance. By definition, 1 gigohm equals exactly 1000000000 ohms. This means to convert gigohms to ohms, you multiply by 1000000000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 GΩ to ohms:
We need to convert gigohms to ohms
Since 1 GΩ = 1000000000 Ω, multiply by 1000000000
5 × 1000000000 = 5000000000
5 GΩ = 5000000000 Ω

About These Units
Gigohm (GΩ)
A gigohm (GΩ) equals 10⁹ ohms or 1,000 megohms. Measures high-impedance circuits, electrostatic voltmeter input resistance, insulation resistance of good insulators, and humidity sensor resistance in dry conditions.
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.
