Unit
Name deciohm
Category Electrical Resistance
Details A deciohm (dΩ) is a unit of electrical resistance that refers to one-tenth (1/10) of an ohm (Ω). The ohm (Ω) is the standard unit of electrical resistance used in the International System of Units (SI). Electrical resistance measures how strongly an object, material, or circuit resists the flow of electric current. The unit deciohm is used to measure smaller resistance values, and it is particularly useful in contexts where electrical resistance values are less than 1 ohm.

For example, if the resistance of a wire is 0.5 ohms, it is equivalent to 5 deciohms (5 dΩ).
