abmho

The unit of electric conductance in the centimeter-gram-second electromagnetic system of units. A conductor has a conductance of 1 abmho when there is a potential difference of 1 abvolt between the ends of the conductor while an unvarying current of 1 abampere flows through it. Symbol, ab or abΩ^-1. Renamed the absiemens (symbol, aS). One abmho = 10⁹ siemens.

According to the current national standard in the United States¹, the abmho is not to be used. The siemens should be used instead.
