   siemens
   Siemens (S) is the SI derived unit of of electrical conductance of a conductor in which a current of one ampere is produced by an electrical potential difference of one volt (S = A·V-1 = O-1). The unit is named after the German scientist Ernst Werner von Siemens (1816-1892).

    siemens
    (S) The derived unit of electrical conductance (G) in the SI system of units. The siemens is derived from the SI quantities volt and ampere by the relationship G = I/E, where I is current (measured in amps) and E is electromotive force (measured in volts). The siemens and the oh...
