How the formula works
Both siemens and nanosiemens measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in siemens by 1.000000e+09 to get nanosiemens. To reverse the conversion, multiply a nanosiemens value by 1.000000e-09 to get back to siemens.
Frequently asked questions
What is Siemens (S)?
The siemens (S) is the SI unit of electrical conductance, the reciprocal of resistance.
What is Nanosiemens (nS)?
A Nanosiemens (nS) equals 1e-09 siemens(s), a scaled unit of electrical conductance used for nano-scale electrical work.
How do I convert siemens to nanosiemens?
Multiply the siemens value by 1.000000e+09 to get the equivalent in nanosiemens. For example, 5 S × 1.000000e+09 = 5.000000e+09 nS.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e+09 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert nanosiemens back to siemens?
Yes. Divide the nanosiemens value by 1.000000e+09, or multiply it by 1.000000e-09, to get siemens.
