Resistance (R) and Conductance (G = 1/R) Formula
Background Resistance measures how difficult it is for the
electricity to flow between two terminals.
Conductance is the reciprocal of Resistance and
measures how easily the electricity flows.
Note
Conductance is only shown for its relation to
Resistance, Conductance is not a measurable feature of
the LCR-800 series.
