Farad
Farad measures capacitance, equal to one coulomb per volt.
History: The farad is named after Michael Faraday and is the SI derived unit of capacitance.
Current use: Used for capacitors, electronics, power systems, filters, sensors, and energy storage.
Also written as F.
Hectofarad
One hectofarad is equal to 100 farads.
History: Hecto-prefix units provide complete metric scaling for capacitance.
Current use: Used mainly for complete metric conversion coverage.
Also written as hF.
