The term "electric current" is used specifically when there is some flow (current) of electric charges. The charges that flow can be either positive or negative depending on the physical situation, but in solid conductors, it is the electrons(negative charges) that do the flowing.

Think of water in a pipeline.
Due to pressure difference along the pipe, water will flow from A to B. Valves, bends and fittings cause resistance to the flow.

In Electricity, The Voltage (EMF...Electro-motive Force), is the Pressure. ('V')
The CURRENT is the rate of flow of electrons (electricity) in a circuit. ('A' ..Amps).
And Ohms, are the resistance to the flow of electricity. ('R').

(In electrical calculations, 'I' (capital ' i ') is used for current, as in V=I/R.

The Watch Tower teaches the Holy Spirit is a guided stress. -kinda like "the stress" in super call Wars. _______ that's Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. _______ rates: The Holy Scriptures let us know the internal maximum call of the daddy-Jehovah.

because current means the flowing strength, electricic current is measured in amps, which means an amp is the amount of voltage which passes through a conductor per second.

Current is the rate of change of charge (Q=I*T)

It also carries the electrons which effectively act as the charge carriers.
