Susceptance vs. Conductance

Susceptancenoun

(physics) the imaginary component of the admittance of an alternating current circuit

Susceptance

In electrical engineering, susceptance (B) is the imaginary part of admittance, where the real part is conductance. The reciprocal of admittance is impedance, where the imaginary part is reactance and the real part is resistance.

Conductancenoun

(physics) A measure of the ability of a body to conduct electricity; the reciprocal of its resistance.

Conductancenoun

Conducting power; - the reciprocal of resistance. A suggested unit is the mho, the reciprocal of the ohm.

Conductancenoun

a material's capacity to conduct electricity; measured as the reciprocal of electrical resistance
