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.
Statampere (statA)
A statampere (statA) is the CGS electrostatic unit of current equal to approximately 3.336×10⁻¹⁰ amperes. Defined as one statcoulomb per second. One ampere equals approximately 2.998×10⁹ statamperes. Found in older physics literature.
