Compare with Definitions
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.
Conductance
Symbol G A measure of a material's ability to conduct electric charge; the reciprocal of the resistance.
Susceptance
The imaginary part of the complex representation of admittance.
Conductance
Thermal conductance.
Susceptance
(physics) the imaginary component of the admittance of an alternating current circuit

Conductance
(physics) A measure of the ability of a body to conduct electricity; the reciprocal of its resistance.
Conductance
Conducting power; - the reciprocal of resistance. A suggested unit is the mho, the reciprocal of the ohm.
Conductance is an attribute of any specified conductor, and refers to its shape, length, and other factors. Conductivity is an attribute of any specified material without direct reference to its shape or other factors.
Conductance
A material's capacity to conduct electricity; measured as the reciprocal of electrical resistance
