Convert Milliohms to Ohms

Type the number of milliohms that you wish to convert to ohms.

1(milliohms) = 0.001 Ω (ohms)

How to Convert Milliohms to Ohms

The milliohm and ohm are both units of electrical resistance. By definition, 1 ohm equals exactly 1000 milliohms. This means to convert milliohms to ohms, you divide by 1000.

Formula

ohms = milliohms ÷ 1000

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 mΩ to ohms:

1
Convert 5 mΩ to ohms

We need to convert milliohms to ohms

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 Ω = 1000 mΩ, divide by 1000

5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005

Answer

5 mΩ = 0.005 Ω

About These Units

Milliohm (mΩ)

A milliohm (mΩ) equals 0.001 ohms. Used for current sense resistors (1-100 mΩ), PCB trace resistance, wire resistance, battery internal resistance (5-50 mΩ), and contact resistance. Measurement requires 4-wire technique for accuracy.

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.
