How to convert microtesla to gauss
Enter your magnetic field strength in microtesla and get the equivalent in gauss instantly. Key reference points: Earth's magnetic field is about 25-65 microtesla (0.25-0.65 gauss), a typical MRI machine operates at 1.5-3 tesla, and a refrigerator magnet is about 5 millitesla.
Microtesla is the SI unit for weak magnetic fields; milligauss (thousandths of gauss) is the CGS equivalent commonly used in EMF exposure guidelines and power line field measurements.
