Formula

Formula
MΩ = Ω × 1e-6

Multiply any value in ohms by 1e-6 to obtain the value in mega-ohms.

Worked example

Convert 1.00000e+6 Ω to .

  1. 01Start with 1.00000e+6 Ω.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1.00000e+6 × 1e-6 = 1 MΩ.
Result1.00000e+6 Ω = 1

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from Ω to MΩ?
1 Ω equals 1e-6 MΩ. To convert, multiply the value in ohms by 1e-6.
How do I convert 1 Ω to MΩ?
1 Ω = 1e-6 MΩ. For any value, multiply by 1e-6.
How do I convert MΩ back to Ω?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1000000. So 1 MΩ = 1.00000e+6 Ω.
When would I need to convert ohm to mega-ohm?
Resistance conversions between Ω and MΩ are used in electrical-network analysis, instrumentation (RTD/thermistor specification), grounding and bonding measurements, and electronics design. Ohms cover most circuit calculations; kΩ and MΩ appear in input-impedance specs, while milli-ohms cover bus-bar joints and shunt resistors.
Is the conversion exact?
Yes. Both Ω and MΩ are defined by exact SI relationships, so the displayed factor is exact (any rounding shown is only for display).
