Key Terminology

Dekahenry (daH): An SI-derived unit of inductance equal to 10 henry, measuring magnetic flux linkage per ampere of current.
Abhenry (abH): A unit of inductance in the cgs-emu system, representing magnetic flux per abampere of current; historically used and now mostly replaced.
Inductance: The measure of the ratio of magnetic flux linkage to an electric current flowing in a circuit.
