One abampere is the amount of current that, if maintained in
two straight, infinitely long parallel conductors placed 1 centimeter apart in a
vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force of 2 dynes per centimeter
of length.
one abampere = 10 amperes = 1.036 x 10-4 faraday/s
= 2.998 x 1010 statamperes
