gigahenry to centihenry
Convert gigahenry (GH) to centihenry (cH). Use an editable inductance converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 GH = 100,000,000,000 cH
Conversion formula
One gigahenry equals 100,000,000,000 centihenry. Multiply your value in gigahenry by this factor to get centihenry. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 gigahenry:5 × 100,000,000,000 = 500,000,000,000 cH

About these measurements
Inductance describes the relationship between changing current and induced voltage.
The base reference used here is the henry. One gigahenry is 1,000,000,000 base units; one centihenry is 0.01 base units.
Important distinctions
A prefix changes only the scale of the inductance unit.
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 GH to cH?
Multiply the quantity in GH by 100,000,000,000. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the centihenry to gigahenry converter.
