Electrical Conductivity/Salinity Fact Sheet
Fact Sheet The Clean Water Team Guidance Compendium for Watershed Monitoring and Assessment State Water Resources Control Board (EC)V2e 4/27/2004 Page 1 Electrical Conductivity/Salinity Fact Sheet What is Electrical Conductivity/Salinity /TDS? Solids can be found in nature in a dissolved form. Salts that dissolve in water break into positively and negatively charged ions. Conductivity is the ability of water to conduct an Electrical current, and the dissolved ions are the conductors. The major positively charged ions are sodium, (Na+) calcium (Ca+2), potassium (K+) and magnesium (Mg+2). The major negatively charged ions are chloride (Cl-), sulfate (SO4-2), carbonate (CO3-2), and bicarbonate (HCO3-).
objectives for total dissolved solids. The TDS objectives range from 150 to 1400 mg/l depending on the water body. Los Angeles (Region 4): There are no objectives for conductivity. However, there are objectives for total dissolved solids. The TDS objectives range from 225 to 2000 mg/l depending on the water body.
