Convert Petaohm to Reciprocal Siemens

Convert petaohms to reciprocal siemens by entering a value below.

1(petaohms) = 1e15 1/S (reciprocal siemens)

How to Convert Petaohms to Reciprocal Siemens

The petaohm and reciprocal siemens are both units of electrical resistance. By definition, 1 petaohm equals exactly 1e15 reciprocal siemens. This means to convert petaohms to reciprocal siemens, you multiply by 1e15.

Formula

reciprocal siemens = petaohms × 1e15

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 PΩ to reciprocal siemens:

1
Convert 5 PΩ to reciprocal siemens

We need to convert petaohms to reciprocal siemens

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 PΩ = 1e15 1/S, multiply by 1e15

5 × 1e15 = 5e15

Answer

5 PΩ = 5e15 1/S

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.

Reciprocal Siemens (1/S)

The ohm is the reciprocal of the siemens (S), the unit of conductance. Resistance R = 1/G where G is conductance. A 1 kΩ resistor has conductance of 0.001 S = 1 mS. Siemens was formerly called "mho" (ohm spelled backward). R(Ω) = 1/G(S).
