calleAn electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge past a point[1]:2[2]:622 or
region.[2]:614 An electric current is said to exist when there is a net flow of electric
charge through a region.[3]:832 Electric charge is carried by charged particles, so an

The moving particles are called charge carriers, which may be one of several
types of particles, depending on the conductor. In electric circuits the charge
carriers are often electrons moving through a wire. In an electrolyte the charge
carriers are ions, while in an ionized gas (plasma), both ions and electrons are
used.[4]
The SI unit of electric current is the ampere, or amp, which is the flow of electric
charge across a surface at the rate of one coulomb per second. The ampere
(symbol: A) is an SI base unit[5]:15 Electric current is measured using a device
called an ammeter.[2]:788
Electric currents cause Joule heating, which creates light in incandescent light
bulbs. They also create magnetic fields, which are used in motors,
generators, inductors, and transformers.
