Use this page to convert nanosiemens values into siemens, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.

1 nS = 0.000000001 S

1 S = 1,000,000,000 nS

Example: 0.01 nS = 0.00000000001 S

One nanosiemens is equal to one billionth of a siemens (1e-9 siemens).

History: Nanosiemens describe conductance in dilute solutions and high-impedance circuits.

Current use: Used for analytical chemistry, electrochemistry, semiconductor leakage, and biosensors.

Also written as nS.

Siemens measures electrical conductance, the reciprocal of resistance.

History: The siemens is named after Werner von Siemens and replaced the older name mho.

Current use: Used in circuits, conductors, sensors, electrolytes, power systems, and electrical measurements.

Also written as S.
