To calculate electrical conductivity, one essential parameter is needed and this parameter is Resistivity (ρ).
The formula for calculating electrical conductivity:
σ = 1 / ρ
Where:
σ = Electrical Conductivity
ρ = Resistivity
Let’s solve an example;
Find the electrical conductivity when the resistivity is 22.
This implies that;
ρ = Resistivity = 22
σ = 1 / ρ
That is, σ = 1 / 22
σ = 0.045
Therefore, the electrical conductivity is 0.045 (Ωm)-1.
