Electrical Conductance converter

gigasiemens to terasiemens

Convert gigasiemens (GS) to terasiemens (TS). Use an editable electrical conductance converter, conversion formula, and reference table.

Conversion formula

TS = GS × 0.001

One gigasiemens equals 0.001 terasiemens. Multiply your value in gigasiemens by this factor to get terasiemens. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.

Worked example

To convert 5 gigasiemens:
5 × 0.001 = 0.005 TS

About these measurements

Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance.

The base reference used here is the siemens. One gigasiemens is 1,000,000,000 base units; one terasiemens is 1e+12 base units.

Important distinctions

To convert resistance into conductance, take a reciprocal. A direct unit conversion does not do that.

Precision

The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.

Common questions

How do I convert GS to TS?

Multiply the quantity in GS by 0.001. You can also type the value into the converter above.

Can I reverse the conversion?

Yes. Use the swap button or open the terasiemens to gigasiemens converter.
