conductance

Conductance is a measure of how easily electric current can flow through a material or a component. Think of it like the opposite of resistance; higher conductance means current can pass more freely, while lower conductance indicates more difficulty. It depends on the material's properties and its size. For example, copper has high conductance, making it a good conductor, while rubber has very low conductance, making it an insulator. Conductance is measured in units called siemens and helps engineers design efficient electrical systems by understanding how easily electricity moves through different materials.
