millisiemens per meter to microsiemens per centimeter
Convert millisiemens per meter (mS/m) to microsiemens per centimeter (μS/cm). Use an editable electrical conductivity converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 mS/m = 10 μS/cm
Conversion formula
One millisiemens per meter equals 10 microsiemens per centimeter. Multiply your value in millisiemens per meter by this factor to get microsiemens per centimeter. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 millisiemens per meter:5 × 10 = 50 μS/cm

About these measurements
Conductivity describes the material’s ability to conduct current.
The base reference used here is the siemens per meter. One millisiemens per meter is 0.001 base units; one microsiemens per centimeter is 0.0001 base units.
Important distinctions
Compound units must match the quantity and dimension. Temperature intervals use size factors rather than temperature offsets. Calorie and BTU entries use the explicit definitions shown.
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 mS/m to μS/cm?
Multiply the quantity in mS/m 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 microsiemens per centimeter to millisiemens per meter converter.
