The rate of flow of charges of the conductor is called as electric current.
- The flow of electrons or ions is said to be electric current.
- Current is also defined as rate of flows of charge from negative to positive.
- Electric charge carries electrons, protons and some other charged particles.
- The SI unit of electric current is ampere (A).
- 1 ampere = 1 coulomb of charge in one second.
- There are two types of current :- Direct current (DC) and Alternating current (AC).
