Watt (W)
1 watt is equal to 1 joule per second (J/s). It measures the rate of energy conversion.
Volt (V)
1 volt is equal to 1 watt per ampere (W/A). It measures electric potential or electromotive force.
Ohm ()
Ohm is the unit of electrical resistance, with 1 ohm equaling the resistance between two points when 1 volt maintains a current of 1 ampere.
Ampere (A)
The ampere is the unit of electric current equal to the flow of one coulomb per second.
Coulomb (C)
The coulomb is the unit of electric charge transferred by a current of one ampere in one second.
Farad (F)
The farad measures electric capacitance and is equal to one coulomb per volt.
Henry (H)
The henry is the SI unit of electrical inductance. One henry is the inductance creating an EMF of one volt when the current changes at the rate of one ampere per second.
Weber (Wb)
The weber is the SI unit of magnetic flux equivalent to the flux that, linking a circuit of one turn, produces an EMF of one volt as it is reduced to zero at a uniform rate in one second.
Siemens (S)
The siemens is the unit of electrical conductance, admittance, and susceptance. It is the reciprocal of the ohm, equal to one ampere per volt.
Tesla (T)
The tesla is the SI unit of magnetic field (flux density). One tesla is equal to one weber per square meter.
