About electric conductivity units
Conductivity is the reciprocal of resistivity. Water quality is usually reported in µS/cm: distilled water is under 1 µS/cm, tap water roughly 50–800 µS/cm, seawater about 50,000 µS/cm (5 S/m).

Frequently asked questions
What is the SI unit of electric conductivity?
This converter uses the siemens per meter (S/m) as its reference unit; every other unit is defined relative to it.
How many electric conductivity units can I convert?
7 units are supported here, across SI, Other, CGS systems. Every pair can be converted in both directions.
Does this electric conductivity converter work offline?
