How to Convert Petaohms to Megohms
The petaohm and megohm are both units of electrical resistance. By definition, 1 petaohm equals exactly 1000000000 megohms. This means to convert petaohms to megohms, you multiply by 1000000000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 PΩ to megohms:
We need to convert petaohms to megohms
Since 1 PΩ = 1000000000 MΩ, multiply by 1000000000
5 × 1000000000 = 5000000000
5 PΩ = 5000000000 MΩ

About These Units
Petaohm (PΩ)
A petaohm (PΩ) equals 10¹⁵ ohms. Theoretical scale for extreme insulators: fused quartz, Teflon, and ultrapure materials approach this range. Surface resistance of clean insulators in vacuum. Measurement at practical limits.
Megohm (MΩ)
A megohm (MΩ) equals 1,000,000 ohms or 1,000 kilohms. Used for insulation resistance testing (should be >1 MΩ), high-impedance circuits, input resistance of oscilloscopes (1-10 MΩ), and anti-static resistors.
