About These Units

Megaampere (MA)

A megaampere (MA) equals 1,000,000 amperes. Found in fusion reactor plasma currents (ITER: 15 MA), lightning return strokes (peak can exceed 1 MA briefly), electromagnetic launchers, and pulsed power systems. Extreme currents creating enormous magnetic fields.

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.
