FAQ

Is a siemens the same as a mho?

Yes. The siemens and mho represent the same unit of electrical conductance. The siemens is the modern SI name adopted in 1971, replacing the older mho designation.

How do I convert siemens to mhos?

No conversion is needed. The values are identical: 5.6 S = 5.6 mhos. They are the same unit with different names.

Is the mho still used today?

The mho appears occasionally in older textbooks and American engineering practice, but the siemens is the internationally recognized SI unit.

What is the symbol for a mho?

The mho symbol is an inverted omega (℧), which is the omega symbol (Ω) used for ohms turned upside down.
