electric current Quantity (Library of Units and Constants

Name:
abampere
(convert abampere to new units)

Abbreviation:
aA

Other Names:
abA, biot, Bi, emu-of-current

Metric (SI) Equivalent:
10 amperes

Metric (SI) Dimensions:
electric-current

Notes:
(1) This unit is shown with the dimensions of the "electric current" quantity in the SI system of units. There are other systems of units used for electromagnetic calculations and they may assign different dimensions to this quantity.
(2) The metric (SI) equivalent above is exact.

Name:
ampere
(convert ampere to new units)

Abbreviation:
A

Another Name:
amp

Metric (SI) Equivalent:
ampere is a metric unit (in fact, it is a base SI unit)

Metric (SI) Dimensions:
electric-current

Note:
This unit is shown with the dimensions of the "electric current" quantity in the SI system of units. There are other systems of units used for electromagnetic calculations and they may assign different dimensions to this quantity.
