That figures, standard international units means renaming something after a German, interesting how they didn't name anything after James Clark Maxwell but tried to rename something after Siemens. I'm sure Siemens and Halske had something to do with that form of product placement. I believe that the used cycles per second in most English speaking countries, possibly Japan as well since they used to emulate the U.S, as old appliances in Australia have the line frequency quoted in cycles not Hertz.
