In terms of water quality, conductivity is the ability of a water sample to carry an electric current. Is essence, this is a measurement of the amount dissolved solids in water; the higher the amount of dissolved solids, the greater current can be carried and therefore the greater the conductivity. In freshwaters, high conductivity may suggest upstream pollution, although

The ratio of electric current to the electric field in a material. Passage of electric charge which can occur a variety of ways such as passage of electrons or ionized atoms.

| conductivity |
The ratio of the electric current density to the electric field in a material. Some materials such as metals, copper, silver, gold, platinum have very high conductivities but other materials such as plastic may have a very low conductivity. Seawater contains a large quantity of dissolved salts therefore, has a high conductivity. Deionized water (DI) has a low conductivity.
