hectosiemens to decasiemens
Convert hectosiemens (hS) to decasiemens (daS). Use an editable electrical conductance converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 hS = 10 daS
Conversion formula
One hectosiemens equals 10 decasiemens. Multiply your value in hectosiemens by this factor to get decasiemens. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 hectosiemens:5 × 10 = 50 daS

About these measurements
Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance.
The base reference used here is the siemens. One hectosiemens is 100 base units; one decasiemens is 10 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 hS to daS?
Multiply the quantity in hS by 10. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the decasiemens to hectosiemens converter.
