Capacitance Conversions

In electromagnetism and electronics, capacitance is the ability of a body to hold an electrical charge. Capacitance is also a measure of the amount of electric charge stored (or separated) for a given electric potential. A common form of charge storage device is a two-plate capacitor. - Wikipedia

Note: The prefix "ab" is used to indicate an electromagnetic unit in the centimeter-gram-second system.

          The  prefix "stat" is used to indicate an electrical unit in the electrostatic centimeter-gram-second system of units.

1 F = 10-9 1 106 8.987*1011
1 mF = 10-15 10-6 1 105
1 statF = 1.113*10-21 1.113*10-12 1.113*10-6 1
