Best Answer

Magnetism and Electricity are two totally different things . Electricity is the movement of electrons in an electrical conductor (usually Copper or Aluminium)

Magnetism exists as a stationary force field surrounding a magnet which has all of the stationary electrons in the magnetic material, all pointing in the same direction.

Electrons cannot be counted and nobody has any need to count them. (Just as we have no need to count the quantity of molecules in a stream of water in a pipe.) We only measure the EFFECT of electrons when they flow in a wire. it is called 'Current".

With magnetism we measure the strength of a magnetic field, which is a stationary thing . Field strength is measured in 'Oersted'.
