How many electrons are rushing to get somewhere, per second.

means The measure of how much electric current is flowing through a circuit, in amperes.

from Named after André-Marie Ampère, the French physicist and mathematician who in the early 1800s laid down the foundational laws of electrodynamics — figuring out how currents create magnetic fields and push or pull on each other. The ampere became the standard unit of current in his honor, and 'amperage' followed as the everyday noun for 'how many amps.'

not voltage
voltage is the push, amperage is the flow
the killer
amps kill, volts just make you jump
named after
andre-marie ampere, father of electrodynamics
fuses measure
blown fuses mean amperage exceeded the limit
