amperes, plural;
  1. A unit of electric current equal to a flow of one coulomb per second

  1. a former unit of electric current (slightly smaller than the SI ampere)
  2. the basic unit of electric current adopted under the Systeme International d'Unites; "a typical household circuit carries 15 to 50 amps"
  3. The ampere (symbol: A) is the SI unit of electric current and is one of the seven SI base units. It is named after André-Marie Ampère (1775–1836), French mathematician and physicist, considered the father of electrodynamics. In practice, its name is often shortened to amp.
  4. Ampere is a DIY punk band based in Amherst, Massachusetts known for their short (10–15 minutes) but extremely loud and intense live shows. ...
  5. The Ampère was a French automobile built at Billancourt from 1906 to 1909. The car featured a 10/16 hp four-cylinder engine driving through an electric clutch; according to the advertising material, this made for "variation of speed by electric transmission, with neither dynamo nor accumulators".
  6. Ampere was a former station on New Jersey Transit's Montclair Branch in East Orange, New Jersey. The station was built for the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad in 1908, when a housing development was built around the structure. ...
  7. Alternative spelling of ampere
  8. a unit of electrical current, the standard base unit in the International System of Units. Abbreviation: amp, Symbol: A
  9. (Amperes) (“Amps.”) A measure of electrical current. In incandescent lamps, the current is related to voltage and power as follows: Watts (power) = Volts x Amps (current).
  10. ((Design) Amperes) The approximate current which the lamp will draw at design volts
  11. (Amperes) Current is represented by the upper case letter I (I stands for Intensity) in electrical mathematical equations like "Ohm's Law". ...
  12. (Amperes) The measured rate at which electricity is delivered to an appliance; it is limited by the size of the wire it must flow through.
  13. A unit of electrical current or rate of flow of electrons. One volt across one ohm of resistance causes a current flow of one ampere.
  14. A unit of electrical current or volume--see "Voltage." Most homes have an electrical service 'entrance' package of 125 or 200 amps. Some older homes have 60 or 100 amp 'entrances'.
  15. Coulomb · Faraday · Heaviside · Henry · Hertz · Lorentz · Maxwell · Tesla · Weber ·
  16. The unit used to measure the strength of an electric current.
  17. Unit of measure of current flow.
  18. The unit of measurement of electrical current produced in a circuit by 1 volt acting through a resistance of 1 Ohm.
  19. The unit of measure that indicates how much electricity flows through a conductor. It is like using cubic feet per second to measure the flow of water. For example, a 1,200-watt, 120-volt hair dryer pulls 10 amperes of electric current (amps = watts/volts).
  20. The rate of flow of electricity through electric wires.
  21. The unit for measuring an electric charge per second, known as current.
  22. the unit of electrical current equal to one coulomb of charge per second.
  23. The current that will deposit silver at the rate of 0.0011180 grams per second. Current flowing at the rate of one coulomb.
  24. the basic unit of electrical current. Current is a measure of the electron flow through a circuit. If we could count electrons, we would find that there are 6.24 x 10^18 electrons moving past a point in one second, we have a current of one ampere. We abbreviate amperes as amps.
  25. The flow rate of electricity. Also called amps. Abbreviated "A".
