= Single-channel conductance from open probability
{title2=$\gamma=I/[NP_O(V-E)]$}

For N independent equivalent <ion channels> with open <probability> $P_O$ and approximately Ohmic open-state <electrical conductance> $\gamma$, the mean <electric current> is $I=NP_O\gamma(V-E)$. A numerical <Electrical conductance> cannot be inferred without the relevant <reversal potential> or driving voltage.
