As nouns the difference between conductance and reactance
is that conductance is a measure of the ability of a body to conduct electricity; the reciprocal of its resistance while reactance is the opposition to the change in flow of current in an alternating current circuit, due to inductance and capacitance; the imaginary part of the impedance.
