statohm

statohm

[′stad‚ōm] (electricity) The unit of resistance, reactance, and impedance in the electrostatic centimeter-gram-second 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 × 1011 ohms. Abbreviated statΩ.
