Convert Abampere to Biot

Type the number of abamperes that you wish to convert to biots.

1 abA (abamperes) = 1 Bi (biots)

How to Convert Abamperes to Biots

The abampere and biot are both units of electric current. By definition, 1 abampere equals exactly 1 biots. This means to convert abamperes to biots, you multiply by 1.

Formula

biots = abamperes × 1

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 abA to biots:

1
Convert 5 abA to biots

We need to convert abamperes to biots

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 abA = 1 Bi, multiply by 1

5 × 1 = 5

Answer

5 abA = 5 Bi

About These Units

Abampere (abA)

An abampere (abA), also called biot, is the CGS electromagnetic unit of current equal to exactly 10 amperes. Defined so that two parallel wires 1 cm apart carrying 1 abampere each exert 2 dynes per cm of force. One ampere = 0.1 abamperes.

Biot (Bi)

The biot (Bi) is identical to the abampere, equal to 10 amperes. Named after French physicist Jean-Baptiste Biot who studied electromagnetism. Used in the CGS electromagnetic system. One ampere equals 0.1 biots. Rarely used today.
