Every medium is supposed to possess two permittivities :

1. Absolute Permittivity (Îo) and

2.Related Permittivity (Îr).

For measuring relative permittivity, vacuum is to be chosen as the reference medium. It is alloted an absolute permittivity of 8.854 x 10-12 farad/metre. It's symbol is Îo .

The relative permittivity of vacuum with reference to itself is unity. Hence, for free space or vacuum.

Absolute Permittivity, Îo = F/m.

Related Permittivity, Îr = 1

Now, take any other medium. If it's relative permittivity, as compared to vacuum, is Îr , then it's absolute permittivity is

Î = ÎoÎr F/m
