    Electric currents cause Joule heating, which creates light in incandescent light

    bulbs. They also create magnetic fields, which are used in motors,


    generators, inductors, and transformers.
    An electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge past a point[1]:2[2]:622 or
    region.[2]:614 An electric current is said to exist when there is a net flow of electric
    charge through a region.[3]:832 Electric charge is carried by charged particles, so an
    electric current is a flow of charged particles. The moving particles are
    called charge carriers, which may be one of several types of particles, depending
    on the conductor. In electric circuits the charge carriers are
    often electrons moving through a wire. In an electrolyte the charge carriers
    are ions, while in an ionized gas (plasma), both ions and electrons are used.[4]
    The SI unit of electric current is the ampere, or amp, which is the flow of electric
    charge across a surface at the rate of one coulomb per second. The ampere
    (symbol: A) is an SI base unit[5]:15 Electric current is measured using a device
    called an ammeter.[2]:788
