Multiples / Sub-multiples

<^< Electrical Units | Course Index | Examples: Units and Multiples >^>(:nl:)

Unfortunately, many of the derived units are somewhat cumbersome for everyday use but we can make life a little easier by using the standard range of multiples and sub-multiples shown in the table below.

Prefix	Abbreviation	Multiplier
Tera	T	10'^12^' (=1,000,000,000,000)
Giga	G	10'^9^' (=1,000,000,000)
Mega	M	10'^6^' (=1,000,000)
Kilo	k	10'^3^' (=1,000)
(none)	(none)	10'^0^' (=1)
Centi	c	10'^-2^' (=0.01)
Milli	m	10'^-3^' (=0.001)
Micro	μ	10'^-6^' (=0.000,001)
Nano	n	10'^-9^' (=0.000,000,001)
Pico	p	10'^-12^' (=0.000,000,000,001)
