How to Convert Teslas to Oersteds
Converting teslas (T) to oersteds (Oe) is a common conversion in physics and engineering. One tesla is equal to approximately 795,774.715 oersteds.
Formula
Oersteds = Teslas / (4 × π × 10^-7)
or
Oe = T / (4 × π × 10^-7)
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in teslas
- Divide that number by (4 × π × 10^-7)
- The result is the equivalent amount in oersteds
Examples
- 1 T = 795,774.715 Oe
- 10 T = 7,957,747.15 Oe
- 0.5 T = 397,887.3575 Oe
When to Convert Teslas to Oersteds

Frequently Asked Questions
How many oersteds are in a tesla?
There are approximately 795,774.715 oersteds in one tesla.
Why is the conversion factor 1 / (4 × π × 10^-7)?
The conversion between tesla and oersted depends on the magnetic permeability of free space (μ0), which is 4π × 10^-7 T·m/A. The oersted is a unit of magnetic field strength in the CGS system, while the tesla is the SI unit.
