(electricity, physics) A region of space around a charged particle, or between two voltages, which exerts a force on charged objects in its vicinity.

(physics) A net unidirectional movement of electrons, or other charge carriers, caused by a potential difference.

(physics) The static electric energy of a charged body. / (physics) The quantity of unbalanced positive or negative ions in or on an object; measured in coulombs.

(anatomy) An effector organ found in some fish (especially electric eels and electric catfish), that can produce a voltage large enough to aid in predation. / (music) electronic organ.

(strictly) Electrophorus electricus, a species of fish resembling an eel (though not related) that is capable of generating powerful electric shocks. / (broadly) Any species of the genus Electrophorus.

(physics) two electric charges of equal magnitude but opposite sign separated by a short distance

(physics) The opposition offered by an electrical conductor to the flow of a current through itself, resulting in a conversion of electrical energy into heat and radiation. The SI derived unit of resistance is the ohm (Ω). Symbol: R.

Alternative form of electric current

the branch of engineering that deals with the technology of electricity, especially the design and application of circuitry and equipment for power generation and distribution, machine control, and communications

A path, or an interconnected group of paths (at least one of which is closed), capable of carrying an electric current.
