Definition of conductance in the English dictionary

The definition of conductance in the dictionary is the ability of a system to conduct electricity, measured by the ratio of the current flowing through the system to the potential difference across it; the reciprocal of resistance. It is measured in reciprocal ohms, mhos, or siemens G.
