Resistance
Ohms, metric prefixes, and the CGS abohm / statohm pair.
1 Ohm = 0.001 Kiloohm (exact)

How this system works
Resistance is volts per ampere. Resistor colour codes and schematic labels use Ω, kΩ, and MΩ. The abohm (10⁻⁹ Ω) and statohm (~9×10¹¹ Ω) belong to the two incompatible CGS electromagnetic systems.
Base unit: ohm. Ohm is SI; Kiloohm is Metric.
