Frequently Asked Questions

What is an ampere?

An ampere (A) is the SI unit of electric current, representing the flow of one coulomb of charge per second.

How do I convert mA to A?

Divide milliamperes by 1000 to get amperes. For example, 500 mA = 0.5 A.

What current is dangerous?

Currents above 10 mA through the human body can be dangerous. Always follow electrical safety guidelines.
