Page 63: Conductance Measurement
CONDUCTANCE MEASUREMENT Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance. High values of conductance correspond to low values of resistance. The unit of conductance is the Siemens (S). The 50 nS range measures conductance in nano-siemens (1 nS = 0.000000001 Siemens). Because small conductance correspond to extremely high resistance, the nS range lets you easy calculate and determine the resistance of components up to 100 GΩ...
