mF for millifarad is still rare, but getting less so. I see smoothing caps on power amplifier circuit diagrams labelled 4.7mF from time to time.I don't understand this, it seems to be an objection but I addressed it directly:
Because of the context of practical values mF, mf, MF, and MFD would be read as "microfarad" and if milli- or mega- were intended they'd have to be written out.
What am I missing in your reply?
Did you buy a 40μΩ resistor for it? My recollection of older resistors was labelling with "ohms" or Ω, and aside from K,k spelled out prefixes as needed, e.g.: megohms. I just realized I don't recall "kilohm" but there must have been some instances. Do you know if there were?
I bought the shunt as a “60mV/1500A shunt“ (should that be 1.5kA ?), but if you buy a “current sensing resistor” then values in Farnell start at 25μΩ, which their website shows as 25μohm, as if they can find a lower case mu but not an uppercase omega.
To add to the confusion, some browsers display an upper case omega as an upper case W.
