Key Terminology
-
Terahenry (TH)
-
An SI-derived unit of inductance equal to 10^12 henry, used for extremely large inductance values.
-
Henry (H)
-
The SI unit of inductance, describing the inductance of a circuit where a change of one ampere per second induces one volt electromotive force.
-
Inductance
-
A property of an electrical conductor which opposes changes in current, measured in henry.
