Convert ESU of Current to Abampere

Convert esu to abamperes by entering a value below.

1 esu (esu) = 3.335641e-11 abA (abamperes)

How to Convert ESU to Abamperes

The esu of current and abampere are both units of electric current. 1 abampere equals 29979245368 esu. This means to convert esu to abamperes, you divide by 29979245368.

Formula

abamperes = esu ÷ 29979245368

Step-by-Step Example

Convert 5 esu to abamperes:

1
Convert 5 esu to abamperes

We need to convert esu to abamperes

2
Apply the formula

Since 1 abA = 29979245368 esu, divide by 29979245368

5 ÷ 29979245368 = 1.6678205e-10

Answer

5 esu = 1.6678205e-10 abA

About These Units

ESU of Current (esu)

The ESU (electrostatic unit) of current is identical to the statampere, equal to approximately 3.336×10⁻¹⁰ amperes. Part of the Gaussian CGS system. Represents the flow of one statcoulomb per second. Found in theoretical physics contexts.

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.
