| Description |
Every complete system of electrical units requires four fundamental units, the need for an extra unit arising from the fact that the identity of mechanical and electrical phenomena has not been established. The international system is of the type which contains two electrical and two mechanical fundamental units, viz. ampere, ohm, centimetre, and second. One reason why the international system is the most used is because electric current is more familiar and of vastly greater practical importance than electrostatic charges or magnetic poles. Some of the advantages claimed for the international system are those of simplicity and the subordination of the magnetic pole; in the table of units and their dim Subjects: measurements and use of instruments; electricity and magnetism; Electrical instruments and techniques |
