General Definition
Electricity can be generally classified into two types- Electricity is a condition of certain subatomic particles, such as electrons and protons that cause withdrawal and rejection between the two.
- Electricity is an energy source that is channeled through the wires, causing electrical current, because one of the laws of electricity dalah flow from a higher voltage to a lower voltage.
Glossary of terms in electricity
- Electric Voltage
Electric voltage is the potential difference between two points in an electrical circuit, the voltage is expressed by the unit of measure Volts (v), this scale measures the potential energy of an electric field to cause an electric current.
To calculate the voltage in an electrical circuit we can use the formula :
V = P.I
Where ,
V = Electric Voltage
P = Electric Power
I = Electric Current
- Electric Power
Electric power is the amount of energy per unit time where work is in progress or work done per unit time. Electrical power has a measuring scale that is Watt (W).
To calculate the Power in an electrical circuit we can use the formula :
P = V.I
Where ,
V = Electric Voltage
P = Electric Power
I = Electric Current
- Electric Current
An Electric Current is a flow of electric charge. This stream is a flow of electrons or ions flow, Electric current has a measuring scale that is Ampere (A), This flow must be electrically conductive media commonly referred to as conductors. Conductor is the most widely used in daily life are metal wires.
To calculate the Current in an electrical circuit we can use the formula :
I = P/V
Where ,
V = Electric Voltage
P = Electric Power
I = Electric Current
Because at the moment I'm discussing general electric, then to facilitate your understanding of the general formula I gave, although in reality there are many formulas that need to be known in Electricity.
