FAQ

What is the Specific Resistance?
Specific Resistance is defined as the resistance offered per unit length and cross-sectional area when a known amount of voltage is applied. Specific Resistance is usually measured using the Ohm Meter for Electric Resistivity. Note that the value of Specific Resistance is always positive.
Can the Specific Resistance be negative?
No, the Specific Resistance, measured in Electric Resistivity cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Specific Resistance?
Specific Resistance is usually measured using the Ohm Meter[Ω*m] for Electric Resistivity. Ohm Centimeter[Ω*m], Ohm Inch[Ω*m], Microhm Centimeter[Ω*m] are the few other units in which Specific Resistance can be measured.
