Tag: Ampere

  • Oooomp-acity

    I’ve been reading a few books about the US electrical code and such. Here’s a short quiz:
    Volt – Voltage
    Ohm – Ohmage
    Amp(ere) – ???
    I used to say Amperage (and the dictionary shows that I am correct), but most books call it Ampacity. Why not Voltacity or Ohmmacity? I have no idea.
