WHAT DOES SPECIFIC CONDUCTANCE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

specific conductance

Electrical resistivity and conductivity

Electrical resistivity is an intrinsic property that quantifies how strongly a given material opposes the flow of electric current. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows the movement of electric charge. Resistivity is commonly represented by the Greek letter ρ. The SI unit of electrical resistivity is the ohm⋅metre although other units like ohm⋅centimetre are also in use. As an example, if a 1 m × 1 m × 1 m solid cube of material has sheet contacts on two opposite faces, and the resistance between these contacts is 1 Ω, then the resistivity of the material is 1 Ω⋅m. Electrical conductivity or specific conductance is the reciprocal of electrical resistivity, and measures a material's ability to conduct an electric current. It is commonly represented by the Greek letter σ, but κ or γ are also occasionally used. Its SI unit is siemens per metre and CGSE unit is reciprocal second.
