How to Convert Henries to Microhenries

To convert a measurement in henries to a measurement in microhenries, multiply the electrical inductance by the following conversion ratio: 1,000,000 microhenries/henry.

Since one henry is equal to 1,000,000 microhenries, you can use this simple formula to convert:

microhenries = henries × 1,000,000

The electrical inductance in microhenries is equal to the electrical inductance in henries multiplied by 1,000,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 henries to microhenries using the formula above.

microhenries = (5 H × 1,000,000) = 5,000,000 μH

How Many Microhenries Are in a Henry?

There are 1,000,000 microhenries in a henry, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 H = 1,000,000 μH

Henries and microhenries are both units used to measure electrical inductance. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Henry?

One henry is equal to the inductance of a conductor in which there is one volt of electromotive force when the current through the conductor is increased by one ampere per second.^[1]

The henry is the SI derived unit for electrical inductance in the metric system. Henries can be abbreviated as H; for example, 1 henry can be written as 1 H.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology recommends using "henries" as the plural form of the unit, however the usage of "henrys" is also common.^[2]

What Is a Microhenry?

One microhenry is equal to 1/1,000,000 of a henry, which is the inductance of a conductor with one volt of electromotive force when the current is increased by one ampere per second.

The microhenry is a multiple of the henry, which is the SI derived unit for electrical inductance. In the metric system, "micro" is the prefix for millionths, or 10^-6. Microhenries can be abbreviated as μH; for example, 1 microhenry can be written as 1 μH.
