How the formula works
Both decifarad and centifarad measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in decifarads by 10 to get centifarads. To reverse the conversion, multiply a centifarad value by 0.1 to get back to decifarads.
Frequently asked questions
What is Decifarad (dF)?
A Decifarad (dF) equals 1/10 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for deci-scale electrical work.
What is Centifarad (cF)?
A Centifarad (cF) equals 1/100 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for centi-scale electrical work.
How do I convert decifarads to centifarads?
Multiply the decifarad value by 10 to get the equivalent in centifarads. For example, 5 dF × 10 = 50 cF.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 10 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert centifarads back to decifarads?
Yes. Divide the centifarad value by 10, or multiply it by 0.1, to get decifarads.
