'''Current''' is the amount of electricity or [[electrons]] that flows through a conductor, such as a wire, at a given moment. '''Current''' is measured in Amperes, which are often referred to simply as "amps".

'''Current''' is the amount of electrical charge flowing through an object at a given moment.  While moving charge is normally carried by [[electrons]], positive current is measured in the opposite direction from the flow of electrons, since electrons have a negative charge.<p></p>

 

Different objects have different [[Electrical_resistance|resistance]].  An object with high resistance, called an [[insulator]], will have a lower current flowing through it.  An object with low resistance, called a [[conductor]], will have a higher current flowing through it.

 

'''Current''' is typically measured in Amperes (<tt>A</tt>), often referred to as "amps". <tt>1 A = 1 [[Coulomb]]/[[second]]</tt>
