Definición

  • "StatOHM" is the unit of resistance, reactance, and impedance in the electrostatic C.G.S system of units, equal to the resistance between two points of a conductor when a constant potential difference of 1 statvolt between these points produces a current of 1 statampere; it is equal to approximately $8.9876 \ imes 10^{11} ohms$. The statohm is an extremely large unit of resistance. In fact, an object with a resistance of 1 stat W would make an excellent insulator or dielectric . In practical applications, the ohm, the kilohm (k W ) and the megohm (M W or M) are most often used to quantify resistance.
