Basic Electronics Theory Key Terms: Ampere, Volt, Watt, AC, DC Basic electrical circuits can be thought of as a hose passing water. Volts in an electrical circuit refers to the pressure of electrical energy passing through the circuit, just as there is water pressure in a hose. Amperes (often referred to as Amps) refer to the speed at which electrons pass through the circuit at a given point. One Amp equals 6.24 x 1018 electrons per second. |
