About Converting Centiohms to Megaohms
Centiohm and Megaohm both belong to the electricity family — voltage, current, resistance, power, or energy — units that show up constantly when working across the different standards used by household wiring (120V/240V depending on region), automotive electrical systems (12V/24V), and electronics design. Specifically: Centiohm is 0.01 ohm units, and megaohm is 1000000 ohm units.
Formula
megaohms = centiohms × 1e-8
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centiohm equals 0.01 base units, and 1 megaohm equals 1000000 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centiohm-to-megaohm factor of 1e-8.
Simple example
1 cOhm × 1e-8 = 1e-8 MOhm
1 centiohm = 1e-8 megaohms.
Real-world example
120 cOhm × 1e-8 = 0.0000012 MOhm
120 centiohms = 0.0000012 megaohms.

Frequently asked questions
How many megaohms are in 1 centiohm?
1 centiohm equals 1e-8 megaohms, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centiohm to megaohm?
Multiply the centiohm value by 1e-8. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert megaohm back to centiohm?
Use the reverse factor: 1 megaohm equals 100,000,000 centiohms. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centiohm?
Centiohm (cOhm) is a unit of electricity.
What is a megaohm?
Megaohm (MOhm) is a unit of electricity.
Is the centiohm to megaohm conversion exact?
Yes. Both centiohm and megaohm are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1e-8 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between voltage, current, and resistance?
Voltage (volts) is the electrical potential difference driving current through a circuit. Current (amperes) is the rate of flow of electric charge. Resistance (ohms) is how much a component opposes that flow. They're related by Ohm's law (V = I × R), but they are distinct physical quantities, and this page converts between units of just one of them.
