How the formula works
Both siemens and picosiemens measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in siemens by 1.000000e+12 to get picosiemens. To reverse the conversion, multiply a picosiemens value by 1.000000e-12 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 Picosiemens (pS)?
A Picosiemens (pS) equals 1e-12 siemens(s), a scaled unit of electrical conductance used for pico-scale electrical work.
How do I convert siemens to picosiemens?
Multiply the siemens value by 1.000000e+12 to get the equivalent in picosiemens. For example, 5 S × 1.000000e+12 = 5.000000e+12 pS.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e+12 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert picosiemens back to siemens?
Yes. Divide the picosiemens value by 1.000000e+12, or multiply it by 1.000000e-12, to get siemens.
