Science - Electronics / Elect Eng / unità di misura
Italian term or phrase: unità di misura
Buonasera, avrei bisogno di un'informazione. Le unità di misura in spagnolo si scrivono in carattere maiuscolo o minuscolo? ad esempio Volt è "V" oppure "v"? Decibelio è "dB" oppure "db"?

Grazie mille per l'aiuto!

Explanation:
Hola Nenena! No hay un regla general sobre las mayúsculas en las unidades de medida en español. Por ejemplo, para voltios se usa mayúscula (V), pero para metros se usa minúscula (m).
En el caso que preguntas,(decibelios), se utiliza dB (ahí te dejo una página de referencia).
Saludos, y espero que Italia siga bella como siempre, aunque algunos se empeñen en manchar su hermosura.
