How do you convert the unit of self-inductance (H) to kg*m2 (squared) / C ?

I thought the answer should turn out to be:

Kg * m squared / C squared


(I don't know how to type the superscript squared.)

Is there a typo in my book?

Please help.

Maybe somebody that has worked with this stuff more recently than I have will be more helpful. My old physics book defines a henry as a weber-turn per ampere. I think the weber-turn is a dimentionless count, leaving only ampere^-1 to convert to mass, time, and distance units. ^-1 is a conventional way to say to the minus one power using text. Squared would be ^2. Good luck. Personally I like my units as real units. I was happier with dynes/cm^2 than pascals.
