Key Terminology
-
Weber/ampere [Wb/A]
-
An SI derived unit of inductance representing magnetic flux linkage per unit current, identical to the henry.
-
Henry [H]
-
The SI unit of inductance, defining a circuit’s ability to generate electromotive force from a changing current.
-
Inductance
-
A measure of a circuit element’s tendency to oppose changes in current by inducing an electromotive force.
