Electric Current Units & Calculator
Electric current is charge per second. This converter does not determine safe wire or breaker size.
Detailed explanation & worked examples
Conversion method
Base value = input × source factor + source offset. Output = (base value − target offset) ÷ target factor. Only units from this family can be converted together.
Worked example
For the first two units below: 1 Microampere becomes 0.00100000 Milliampere.
| Unit | Multiplier | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Microampere | 1.0E-6 | 0 |
| Milliampere | 0.001 | 0 |
| Ampere | 1 | 0 |
| Kiloampere | 1000 | 0 |
