How to convert gauss to microteslas
One tesla equals one weber per square meter. A gauss is 10⁻⁴ tesla. Do not equate gauss with oersted in arbitrary media; those units describe B and H respectively.
Use x for the value in G, b for the intermediate value in T, and y for the result in µT.
µT = G × 0.0001 ÷ 0.000001
Worked examples
10 G ≈ 1000 µT
Step 1: (10 × 0.0001) ≈ 0.001 T.
Step 2: 0.001 ÷ 0.000001 ≈ 1000 µT.20 G ≈ 2000 µT
Step 1: (20 × 0.0001) ≈ 0.002 T.
Step 2: 0.002 ÷ 0.000001 ≈ 2000 µT.
Results are rounded to 12 significant digits. Converting units does not increase the precision of the original measurement. Very large or small values outside JavaScript’s finite numeric range are rejected.
About Gauss
Gauss (G) measures magnetic flux density under the conventions above. The base value in T is (x × 0.0001), where x is the numerical value in G. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
About Microteslas
Microteslas (µT) measures magnetic flux density under the conventions above. The base value in T is (x × 0.000001), where x is the numerical value in µT. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
