It is the complex ratio of the voltage to the AC (alternating current) circuit. It extends the concept of resistance to AC circuits due to magnitude and phase.

What is a load electricity wise?
A 'load' is a device that does work by using electricity. 'Load' can also refer to the amount of electricity used.
When did you refer to electricity as current?
Current is the rate of flow of electric charge.
Who is the father of moderned electricity?
William Gilbert is called the father of modern electricity. Some refer to Benjamin Franklin as the father of modern electricity but William is considered the first father.
How does electricity normally act?
Electricity , or in this case we refer to charge, is always trying to move from conductor to conductor. Whenever it stays still and the charge can't go on to anything else it is called static electricity. This is how it normally acts.
What is solar mechanical?
I think this must refer to direct water heating rather than production of electricity
What is the name for a collection of switchgear in the context of electricity distribution?
I don't know of a formal name, but in the trade we refer to it as a "switchgear bank".
Are a storage battery and a battery the same?
Yes, these terms refer to the same thing. A storage battery is a means of storing electricity.
What kind of energy moves through the process know as conduction?
Conduction may refer to the transfer of either heat or electricity.
How was electricity first invented?
Electricity was not "invented". It is a natural phenomenon which is around us in nature. The real question is how it was discovered and how it was first contained, or controlled. To see more information, refer to the related question below.
Is hydro power and hydro electricity the same thing?
Yes, hydro power and hydroelectricity refer to the same thing. It is electricity generated by harnessing the energy of moving water using turbines in hydroelectric power plants.
Which are the states that use nuclear power for electricity?
Rather than type out a long list, I refer you to the NRC website, see below
Does an insulator conduct electricity?
We use the term insulator, specifically electrical insulator, to refer to an object or material that does not conduct electricity to any significant degree.The term insulator, with no other explanation, is assumed to refer to electrical insulators. There are of course other materials which are used as insulation for heat. They provide thermal insulation and may or may not conduct electricity.
