Subject: CSConversion table
Hi List,
Does anyone out there, know the conversion rate between us/cm and
megohms? Lately, Ive been reading about lab grade DW, the figure they
give for critical procedures is 18.2 Mw
It would be like trying to convert cubic inches into inches. There's a parameter missing.

Grant thanks for the reply, but now I'm a little confused.
I thought that ms/cm was the unit of resistance, not it's reciprocal and that
Mw (Megohms) was the unit of conductance? (or is it the other way around)
Perhaps I should have made it easier on myself and asked what 18.2 Megohms is
in
ms is the reciprical of megohms. There is no conversion rate between
us/cm and megohms, since one is resistance and the other is 1/resistance
per centimeter. The addition of the cm make it an entirely different
animal, just as there is no conversion rate between miles and miles per
hour.

A siemen is a measure of conductivity. It is the reciprocal of
resistance. us/cm is neither, it is conductivity per cm.
18.2 megohms is 1/18.2X10^6 siemens =~ .055 microsiemens

Rod:
u/siemens is a measure of Conductance...
Ohms or megohms or kilohms etc is a
measure of resistance.. One is
the reciprocal of the other.
So seems to me 1 u/s = 1megohm
and if so, 1 u/s = 1 Mohnm and then the
table is correct. The m represents milli or .001 ohms.

Hi List,
Does anyone out there, know the conversion rate between us/cm and megohms?
Lately, Ive been reading about lab grade DW, the figure they give for critical
procedures is 18.2 Mw, and I would like to know just how my home DW rates
against this. I've found that 0.1 us/cm = 10 Mw, but I'm
