An electric current (symbol: I) is a very slow drift of charge carriers (electrons, in metallic conductors), and is measured in amperes (symbol: A). An ampere is defined in terms of the 'magnetic effect' of an electric current, that is the force of attraction or repulsion between two, parallel, conductors due to the interaction of their magnetic fields. An instrument used to measure electric current is called an 'ammeter'.

What are the three electrical guantities?
The three electrical quantities are current voltage and resistance. Current is measured in amperes (A) and is the rate at which electricity flows through a conductor. Voltage is measured in volts (V) and is the electrical force pushing the current through the conductor. Resistance is measured in ohms () and is the opposition to the flow of current. Current - measured in amperes (A) Voltage - measured in volts (V) Resistance - measured in ohms ()
Current is measured in what?
ampsamperes
What is the opposition of current flow measured in?
The opposition of current flow is measured in ohms. For DC circuits it is resistance and for AC circuits it is impedance.
What is Primary Current?
Primary current is a flow to be measured that cannot be safely passed through the measuring device. A current transformer is used to provide a lower level, secondary current that can be passed safely through the measuring device. Primary current is measured as a secondary current, multiplied by the turns ratio in the current transformer.
A current is measured in which unit?
The Ampere, also in shortened form 'Amp' or "A". It commonly uses the symbol "I" in calculations, hence Ohm's law is in the form V = I x R
What unit measures current?
Current is measured by amperes.
What is Alternating current is measured in?
Alternating Current is measured in Amperes.

Shareholders wealth is measured by the current?
how is wealth measured?
What is a word of a force of an electric current measured in volts?
The force of an electric current is measured in volts.
What can electric current be measured by?
Electric current is measured in amperes. 1 ampere = 1 coulomb/second
What is an electric flow?
An electric flow, is Current. Measured in Amps(Amperes)
How do you measure the current by using multimeter?
The current is the amperage. It is measured in series. Voltage is measured across the line (parallel).
Is the current measured in amps the same as the keyword "amps"?
Yes, the current measured in amps is the same as the keyword "amps."
Is units of electric current a volt?
Electric current is measured in amps not voltsElectric voltage is measured in volts.
Current is measured in what?
