Where can i find abbreviations for use in excel formulas
 

when using the =CONVERT functions of excel, where can I find a list of common
abbreviation. I have some like (sec for secons, in for inch, oz for fluid
ounce) but some are not what i thought. IE: Ton is not ton or pound is not
lbs, Lbs LBS.

Excel's help is a good place to start.
