EnumConversionDef

An EnumConversionDef defines the Base Unit which is used as the pivot point for converting between enumeration values. The Base Unit is the unit of measure against which all others are translated in order to facilitate conversion. For example, for Weight one might choose GRAM as the BaseUnit.
