Quantity Catalog - Inductance
Inductance is a physical quantity that represents the ability of a conductor to store energy in the form of a magnetic field when an electric current passes through it. It is a property of an electrical circuit that opposes changes in current.
Common examples of related units of measurements include henries (H), millihenries (mH), and microhenries (μH). These units are used to quantify the inductance of different components in electrical circuits, such as coils and solenoids.
- Inductance is crucial in the design and analysis of electrical circuits
- It plays a key role in the operation of transformers, motors, and generators
- Inductance is used in the development of electronic devices and systems
