0.1S
That's 2.3× as conductive as a kettle element, while a meter of 1.5 mm² copper wire is 870× more conductive. On 230 V it would pass 23 A.
What it means
How easily does current flow?
Body resistance varies widely with skin, moisture and contact area; the figures are typical, not safety limits.
The math
How to convert Ω to S
Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance: G = 1 ÷ R. Parallel conductances add: G = G₁ + G₂.
Example: 10 Ω = 0.1 S.
