Units and abbreviations.

§ 63.3 Units and abbreviations.

Used in this part are abbreviations and symbols of units of measure. These are defined as follows:

(a) System International (SI) units of measure:

A = ampere g = gram Hz = hertz J = joule °K = degree Kelvin kg = kilogram l = liter m = meter m3 = cubic meter mg = milligram = 10−3 gram ml = milliliter = 10−3 liter mm = millimeter = 10−3 meter Mg = megagram = 106 gram = metric ton MJ = megajoule mol = mole N = newton ng = nanogram = 10−9 gram nm = nanometer = 10−9 meter Pa = pascal s = second V = volt W = watt Ω = ohm µg = microgram = 10−6 gram µl = microliter = 10−6 liter

(b) Other units of measure:
