Limitations

  • Abampere turn is rarely used in current measurements and is mostly of historical interest
  • Differences between unit systems might cause minor rounding or scaling inconsistencies
  • Conversion does not account for real-world magnetic losses or coil geometries
  • Users must ensure consistent unit systems to avoid calculation errors

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a milliampere turn represent?
It represents magnetomotive force as one milliampere of current multiplied by one coil turn, corresponding to 0.001 ampere-turn in SI units.

Why convert between milliampere turn and abampere turn?
To translate magnetomotive force values between modern SI units and the older CGS-EMU system, facilitating comparisons and interpreting historical data.

Is the abampere turn still commonly used today?
No, it is largely replaced by the ampere-turn in SI, but remains relevant for historical data and academic study.

Key Terminology

Milliampere turn [mAt]
A unit of magnetomotive force equaling one milliampere of current multiplied by one coil turn, used in the SI system for magnetic circuits.
Abampere turn [abAt]
The CGS-EMU unit of magnetomotive force corresponding to one abampere flowing once around a single-turn coil, equal to 10 ampere-turns in SI.
Magnetomotive force
The quantity of magnetizing force produced by current flowing through a coil, measured in ampere-turns or equivalent units.
