    Electricity.

    • : the strength of an electric current measured in amperes. Abbreviation: amp.

Examples

  • The infrastructure—the voltage and the amperage required to charge them in large quantities in my districts—that’s going to be a heavy load for the utilities, and I’m more concerned about that than I am about the ability of the truck to do the job.

  • Well that’s when we usually start talking about mold, having to install an entirely new electrical panel with more amperage, and roof or structural issues.

  • An armature wound with very fine wire will deliver a current of high voltage but of low amperage.

  • An armature winding of large wire will deliver a current of great amperage, but of small voltage.

  • The "series" wiring gives the entire set the combined voltage of all with the average amperage of one.

  • You can convert this to watts, of course, by multiplying amperage by the line voltage.

  • The name plates on electric motors indicate the amperage at full load.
