centiohm to gigaohm
Convert centiohm (cΩ) to gigaohm (GΩ). Use an editable electrical resistance converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 cΩ = 1e-11 GΩ
Conversion formula
One centiohm equals 1e-11 gigaohm. Multiply your value in centiohm by this factor to get gigaohm. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 centiohm:5 × 1e-11 = 5e-11 GΩ

About these measurements
Resistance relates voltage to current for a given element.
The base reference used here is the ohm. One centiohm is 0.01 base units; one gigaohm is 1,000,000,000 base units.
Important distinctions
Resistance and impedance are not the same physical quantity.
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 cΩ to GΩ?
Multiply the quantity in cΩ by 1e-11. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the gigaohm to centiohm converter.
