Understanding Coulombs and Electric Charge

A coulomb (C) is the SI unit for electric charge, representing the amount of charge transported by a current of 1 ampere in 1 second. Named after physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, this unit is fundamental in electrical engineering and physics.

Common Conversions

• 1 Coulomb = 1000 millicoulombs (mC)
• 1 Coulomb = 1,000,000 microcoulombs (µC)
• 1 Coulomb = 1 ampere-second (As)
• 1 Ampere-hour = 3600 coulombs

Practical Applications

Coulombs are used in various applications:

• Battery capacity measurement
• Electronic component specifications
• Electrical engineering calculations
• Physics research and experiments
