How to Convert Tesla to Gauss
Formula
Gauss = Tesla x 10,000
The Tesla (T) and Gauss (G) both measure magnetic flux density. The Tesla is the SI unit while the Gauss belongs to the CGS system. One Tesla is exactly 10,000 Gauss. The relationship arises because 1 T = 1 Wb/m² and 1 G = 1 Mx/cm², with the area ratio of 10,000 cm² per m² producing the conversion factor.

Example Calculation
Convert 0.5 Tesla to Gauss.
- 01Apply the conversion factor: 1 T = 10,000 G
- 02Gauss = 0.5 * 10,000 = 5,000 G
- 03Also: 0.5 T = 500 mT
