'''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, or through an electric circuit, 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.

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 the [[SI]] unit of Amperes (<tt>A</tt>), often referred to as "amps". <tt>1 A = 1 [[Coulomb]]/[[second]]</tt>
