For very low values of resistance, for example milli-ohms, (ms) it is sometimes more easier to use the reciprocal

of resistance (1/R) rather than resistance (R) its elf. The reciprocal of resistance is called Conductance, symbol (G) and it is th e ability of a conductor or device to conduct electricity with high values of co nductance implying a good conductor and low values of conductance implying a bad conductor. The unit of conductance is the Siemen, symbol (S).
