How does current flow in a conductor?

Current flows from positive to negative and electron flows from negative to positive. Current is determined by the number of electrons passing through a cross-section of a conductor in one second. Current is measured in amperes, which is abbreviated "amps".

How do you find the current of a conductor?

We simply find current by dividing an amount of charge by how much time the charge was measured for. Current can be calculated using the formula 𝐼 = 𝑄 𝑡 , where 𝐼 represents the current, 𝑄 represents charge, and 𝑡 represents time.

How to Calculate Current in Conductor?

Current in Conductor calculator uses Current in Conductor = Current per Phase/Number of Parallel Paths to calculate the Current in Conductor, The Current in conductor in electrical machine is the responsible for production of magnetic field hence resulting in creation of poles.The current in an armature is AC and amount of current flowing through each conductor is being calculated by dividing total phase current with number of parallel path present in the winding. For lap winding number of parallel path is equal to number poles and for wave winding number of parallel path is 2. Current in Conductor is denoted by I_z symbol.
