A gigaohm is a unit used to measure electrical resistance.

The gigaohm is a multiple of the ohm, which is the SI derived unit for electrical resistance. In the metric system, "giga" is the prefix for billions, or 109. Gigaohms can be abbreviated as GΩ; for example, 1 gigaohm can be written as 1 GΩ.

How Much Is a Gigaohm?

One gigaohm is equal to 1,000,000,000 ohms, which is the resistance between two points of a conductor with one ampere of current at one volt.

How to Convert Gigaohms

To convert gigaohms to another unit of electrical resistance, you need to multiply the value by a conversion factor. A conversion factor is a numerical value used to change the units of a measurement without changing the value.[1]

You can find the conversion factors for gigaohms in the conversion table below.

Then, multiply the electrical resistance measurement by the conversion factor to find the equivalent value in the desired unit of measurement.

gigaohms × conversion factor = result

You can also use a calculator, such as one of the converters below, for the conversion.
